The primary objective of this research is to accurately estimate light-duty vehicles'(LDVs')
emissions of PM 2.5 and PM 10 over the course of a year within the property line of an inner …

The production of new automotive catalytic converters requires the increase of the quantity
of Platinum Group Metals in order to deal with the strict emission standards that are imposed …

Ageing of automotive catalysts is associated to a loss of their functionality and ultimately to a
waste of precious resources. For this reason, understanding catalyst ageing phenomena is …

Background Driven by emission regulations, the technology of emission control catalysts
has been under increasing need for development. Understanding the deactivation …

In this microwave study, the defect chemistry of ceria–zirconia solid solutions (CZO, Ce1−
yZryO2− δ) was investigated at high temperatures by a resonant microwave method …

A Three-Way Catalyst (TWC) contains a cordierite ceramic monolith coated with a layer of
Al2O3, CexZr1− xO2 and platinoids mixture. Under standard operation, the platinoid …

This study reassesses an overview of the potential of the radio frequency (RF)-based state
diagnostics of three-way catalysts (TWC) based on a previous study with an emphasis on …

The prediction accuracy of a three-way catalyst (TWC) model is highly associated with the
ability of the model to incorporate the reaction kinetics of the emission process as a lambda …

The defect chemistry of ceria has been studied using a microwave resonator. The dielectric
properties of powder samples were investigated up to 600° C and at different oxygen partial …
