  2. 1. Modelling of Catalytic Monolith Reactors for Exhaust Aftertreatment

    Author : Magnus Walander; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parameter estimation; effective diffusivity; EATS; synthetic catalyst activity test; scanning electron microscope; washcoat; diesel oxidation catalyst; Exhaust aftertreatment modelling; gravimetric analysis;

    Abstract : The incomplete combustion of liquid or gaseous fuels in the internal combustion engine inherently produces several toxic emissions that need to be  removed. This is done through a series of catalytic converters, referred to as the exhaust aftertreatment system (EATS), each catalyst with its own purpose. READ MORE

  4. 2. Studies of a Heavy-Duty Diesel Aftertreatment System Based on the NOX Storage and Reduction Technology

    Author : Klaus Papadakis; Institutionen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fuel penalty; injection parameters; DoE; design of experiments; exhaust; diesel engine; NO oxidation; simulation; modelling; oxidation catalyst; NOX trap; NOX storage and reduction; NSR; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Chemical technology and engineering; dosing strategy; system optimisation;

    Abstract : The legislative limits for NOX emissions in the exhaust gas from heavy-duty diesel engines will be decreased in the European Union from today 3.5 g/kWh (Euro IV) to 2.0 g/kWh in 2008 (Euro V). In the USA and Japan a similar trend can be seen. READ MORE

  5. 3. Catalytic Converters for Automotive Exhaust Applications. Flow Dynamics, Mass Transfer and Optimization

    Author : Fredrik Ekström; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TWC; optimization; exhaust; laboratory reactors; catalytic converter; catalysis; pressure drop; entrance effects; CFD; mass transfer; pulsations; flow distribution;

    Abstract : In order to reduce emissions from vehicles powered by an internal combustion engine, an exhaust aftertreatment system is normally mounted on the engine. This aftertreatment system normally consists of one or several catalytic converters. READ MORE

  6. 4. TOWARDS VALIDATED CATALYTIC REACTOR MODELS

    Author : Magnus Walander; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : EATS; scanning electron microscope; Exhaust aftertreatment modelling; gravimetric analysis; effective diffusivity; synthetic catalyst activity test; washcoat; diesel oxidation catalyst;

    Abstract : The use of liquid fuels in the internal combustion engine inherently produces several toxic emissions that need to be removed. This is done through a series of catalytic converters, referred to as the exhaust aftertreatment system (EATS), each catalyst with its own purpose. READ MORE
