  4. 3. Development of a regeneration procedure for commercial automotive three-wy catalysts

    Författare :Henrik Birgersson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; deactivation; fouling; sintering; poisoning; palladium; rhodium; regeneration; dispersion; thermal gas treatment; oxy-chlorine; TWC; automotive catalyst; Chemical process equipment; Kemisk apparatteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Car exhaust catalysts were introduced in the early 1980’s, to limit the release of pollutants such as hydrocarbons, carbon monoxides and nitrogen oxides. These catalysts contain noble metals such as palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt) and rhodium (Rh) and are able to simultaneously abate all three of the above-mentioned pollutants, hence the name three-way catalyst (TWC).
