TLDR
The general trend has been one of increasingly complex catalyst formulations in response to increasingly stringent emission standards as discussed by the authors, but with greater emphasis on optimizing catalyst formulations for lean-burn applications and reducing catalyst cost and complexity without sacrificing performance.

Materials Issues Related to Catalysts for Treatment of Diesel Exhaust

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarize material-related issues that are unique to each of these technologies, and point out the improvements necessary to facilitate their deployment, concluding that SCR with urea and lean NO{sub x} traps are the leading contender technologies for commercial deployment.

Twenty-five years after introduction of automotive catalysts: what next?

TL;DR: The union of catalysts and the automobile has been one of the greatest successes of heterogeneous catalysis over the last 25 years as mentioned in this paper, and there will be continued research and development activity focused also on downstream applications (i.e. exhaust emission aftertreatment), especially for fuelefficient, lean-burn vehicles, both diesel and spark-ignited.
