Abstract:
Catalysts for the direct catalytic oxidation of diesel particulate matter are disclosed. The catalysts relate to OIC/OS materials having a stable cubic crystal structure, and most especially to promoted OIC/OS wherein the promotion is achieved by the post-synthetic introduction of non-precious metals via a basic (alkaline) exchange process.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of mixed oxides made of cerium oxide, zirconium oxide, rare earth sesquioxide and niobium oxide as catalytically active materials for the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides with ammonia or a compound that can decompose to form ammonia in the exhaust gas of internal combustion engines in motor vehicles that are predominantly leanly operated, and to compositions or catalysts which contain said mixed oxides in combination with zeolite compounds and/or zeolite-like compounds and are suitable for the denitrogenation of lean motor vehicle exhaust gases in all essential operating states.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a process for the production of supported transition metals with high dispersion. The latter are deposited onto refractory oxides without using a further liquid solvent. Hence, according to this dry procedure no solvent is involved which obviates certain drawbacks connected with wet ion exchange, impregnation or other metal addition processes known in the art.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a process for the production of ion-exchanged (metal-doped, metal-exchanged) Zeolites and Zeotypes, In particular, the method applied uses a sublimation step to incorporate the ion within the channels of the Zeolitic material. Hence, according to this dry procedure no solvent is involved which obviates certain drawbacks connected with wet exchange processes known in the art.
Abstract:
There is described a base metal modified Cerium containing oxide materials and their application as catalysts for the oxidation of CO and HC emissions from a compression ignition/diesel engine. These materials provide effective promotion of CO and HC oxidation function in the presence or absence of PGM and are based upon OIC/OS materials having a stable cubic crystal structure, and most especially to promoted OIC/OS materials wherein the promotion is achieved by the post-synthetic introduction of non-precious metals via a basic (alkaline) exchange process.
Abstract:
A composite single phase crystalline mixed metal oxide NOx scavenger formed of a solid solution, wherein the solid solution has a well defined single phase crystalline structure, as determined by conventional x-ray Diffraction method; and, a NOx scavenger disposed within the single phase oxide structure, without formation of additional X-ray discrete phase, wherein the NOx scavenger is formed from oxides of an element selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, rare earth metals and mixtures thereof. The aforementioned single phase oxide may further posses a cubic fluorite structure and said composite cubic oxide NOx scavenger may be advantageously applied to the control of emissions, of both gaseous and solid or particulate nature, from internal combustions especially engines operating under the principle of compression ignition.
