Abstract:
A diesel oxidation catalyst for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions, such as the oxidation of unburned hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO) and the reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) is described. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a washcoat composition comprising high silica to alumina zeolite and platinum and palladium such that the zeolite minimizes negative interactions of these platinum group metals with the zeolite.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a catalyzed soot filter (CSF) containing a porous wall flow substrate, a lean NOx trap (LNT) catalyst, and a catalyst for selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Also disclosed is a method of preparing the catalyzed soot filter, an emissions treatment system containing the catalyzed soot filter, and processes for treating exhaust gas emissions employing the catalyzed soot filter.
Abstract:
A catalyzed soot filter, in particular for the treatment of Diesel engine exhaust, comprises a coating design which ensures soot particulates filtration, assists the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO), and produces low H2S emissions during normal engine operations and regeneration events.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a catalyst, said process comprising: (i) providing a substrate which is optionally coated with one or more coating layers; (ii) impregnating one or more particulate support materials with one or more platinum group elements; (iii) adding one or more alkaline earth elements and one or more solvents to the product obtained in step (ii) to obtain a slurry; (iv) adjusting the pH of the slurry obtained in step (iii) to a value comprised in the range of from 7 to 10, in case the pH should not fall within this range; (v) adjusting the pH of the slurry to a value comprised in the range of from 2 to 6; (vi) optionally milling the slurry obtained in step (v); (vii) providing the slurry obtained in step (vi) onto the optionally coated substrate in one or more coating steps, as well as to a catalyst which is obtainable according to said process and its use in the treatment of exhaust gas.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a treatment system for a gasoline engine exhaust gas stream comprising a particulate filter, said particulate filter comprising: a particulate filter substrate, an inlet layer disposed on the exhaust gas inlet surface of the filter substrate, and an outlet layer disposed on the exhaust gas outlet surface of the filter substrate, wherein the inlet layer comprises Rh and/or Pd, and the outlet layer comprises Rh and/or a zeolite.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a catalyzed soot filter with layered design. The first coating of the filter comprises an oxidation catalyst comprising platinum (Pt) and optionally palladium (Pd). The second coating of the filter comprises an oxidation catalyst comprising Pd and optionally Pt, wherein the Pt concentration in the second coating is lower than the Pt concentration in the first coating and wherein the weight ratio of Pt:Pd in the second coating is in the range of from 1 : 1 to 0 : 1; and wherein the first coating and the second coating are present on the wall flow substrate at a coating loading ratio in the range of from 0.25 to 3, calculated as ratio of the loading of the first coating (in g/inch3 (g/(2.54cm)3)): loading of the second coating (in g/inch3 (g/(2.54cm)3)).
