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.

From highly dispersed Rh3+ to nanoclusters and nanoparticles: Probing the low-temperature NO+CO activity of Rh-doped CeO2 catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of Rh-doped CeO2 systems was studied as potential catalysts for low-temperature NO reduction by CO. Thermal and redox treatments allowed varying the Rh oxidation state and the size of rhodium particles formed on CeO 2 surface.

Nanostructural Studies of Fresh and Road-Aged Practical Pt/SiO2 and Pt-Pd/Al2O3 Diesel Oxidation Catalysts by using Aberration-Corrected (Scanning) Transmission Electron Microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report direct observations of nanostructural and compositional evolution in complex technological diesel oxidation nanocatalysts (DOCs) by using aberrationcorrected (scanning) transmission electron microscopy (AC-(S)TEM) at the atomic level and nano-beam electron diffraction (NBED).

Lean NOx reduction by CO at low temperature over bimetallic IrRu/Al2O3 catalysts with different Ir : Ru ratios

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect on the catalytic activity and physicochemical properties of IrRu/Al2O3 catalysts caused by introducing Ru onto Ir with different amounts is investigated.

Mechanism of dopant distribution: An example of nickel-doped ceria nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, the microstructure, geometry and accurate distribution of dopants in nickel-doped ceria nanoparticles prepared by spray pyrolysis were characterized and it was suggested that the dopant distribution is mainly controlled by the difference in the diffusion rates of the precursors from the centre to the surface of the particle.

Oxidation of Small Supported Platinum-based Nanoparticles Under Near-Ambient Pressure Exposure to Oxygen

TL;DR: In this paper, small PtZn bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) supported on the rutile and reduced TiO2(110)-(1 × 1) surface can be prepared by a two step consecutive deposition process where Pt was deposited first and followed by Zn.

Rh-Loaded CeO2-ZrO2 Solid-Solutions as Highly Efficient Oxygen Exchangers: Dependence of the Reduction Behavior and the Oxygen Storage Capacity on the Structural-Properties

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that incorporation of ZrO2 into a solid solution with CeO2 strongly promotes bulk reduction of the Rh-loaded solid solutions in comparison to a Rh/CeO2 sample.

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.
