Abstract:
Provided is a catalyst composition, in particular a diesel oxidation catalyst, for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions, such as the oxidation of unburned hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO). More particularly, the present invention is directed to a catalyst structure comprising at least two, specifically three distinct layers, at least one of which contains an oxygen storage component (OSC) that is present in a layer separate from the majority of the platinum group metal (PGM) components, such as palladium and platinum.
Abstract:
Catalyzed soot filters comprising a wall flow monolith having porous walls, a first washcoat permeating the porous walls and a second washcoat on the porous walls are disclosed. Methods of manufacturing catalyzed soot filters and diesel engine exhaust emission treatment systems are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A catalyst comprising (i) a support, (ii) metal particles and (iii) a shell which is arranged between the metal particles, wherein the shell (iii) comprises silicon oxide.
Abstract:
Oxidation catalyst composites for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions, such as the abatement of unburned hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO) and the oxidation of NO to NO2 are disclosed. The catalyst composites comprise two washcoat layers containing two different compositions of platinum group metals to optimize the NO2 exiting the catalyst composite. The key to improvement in NO oxidation is to have one catalyst layer that contains Pt while being substantially free of Pd. Methods and systems utilizing the catalyst composites are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A diesel oxidation catalyst for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions, such as the oxidation of unburned hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) is described. Also described is a novel washcoat composition including a surface-coated zeolite coated with at least one of zirconia and alumina, and a platinum group metal supported on a high surface area alumina.
Abstract:
Provided herein are zoned catalysts that utilize components efficiently in that relatively short zones are provided to achieve specific functionalities to convert and/or trap one or more components in the exhaust stream. Highly controlled zoned are formed from one end of a monolithic carrier. The zones have a flat profile such that the zoned catalytic material within each passage of the substrate is at a substantially uniform distance from one end of the carrier. Methods of making and using the same are also provided.
Abstract:
An oxidation catalyst composite, methods, and systems for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions from a diesel engine are described. More particularly, an oxidation catalyst composite including a first washcoat layer comprising a Pt component and a Pd component, and a second washcoat layer including a refractory metal oxide support containing manganese, a zeolite, and a platinum component is described.
