The first five chapters describe the fundamentals of catalysts and catalysis. Two new chapters have been added on the chemical and physical properties of monoliths, the support of choice for environmental applications. Included are chapters on fuel cells/ fuel processing and novel approaches for purifying ambient air. The current technologies for controlling emissions from mobile and stationary sources include:
Mobile sources
- Control of hydrocarbons, nitric oxides, carbon monoxide, and particulate emissions from gasoline and diesel fueled vehicles including passenger cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, handheld tools, etc.
- Chemical and physical properties of monolithic substrates for automobile and diesel engines
- Decomposition of ozone that enters the cabin of wide–body aircraft
- Catalytic conversion of emissions from gas turbines
- Organic compound abatement from chemical plants and restaurants
- Reduction of nitrogen oxides from stiochiometric, rich and lean burn engines, and zero emission catalytic combustion
- Description of the catalytic challenges for five different fuel cell technologies and hydrogen generation for fuel cell applications
- Ambient air cleanup from mobile and stationary sources
