Catalytic exhaust aftertreatment of vehicle engines is increasingly employed to the benefit of
the atmosphere quality, especially in the large urban area of the world. Both spark-ignition …

The presence of non-uniformities in the channels of a heat exchanger due to poor design of
manifold and channel parameters has been the focus of the present paper. Unequal flow …

The diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) has been part of diesel exhaust systems since
regulations were introduced to limit the amount of harmful emissions released to the …

Interest in structured catalysts is steadily increasing due to the already proven, as well as
potential, advantages of these catalysts. Updating the comprehensive coverage of the first …

The use of structured catalysts in the chemical industry has been considered for years.
Conventional fixed-bed reactors have some obvious disadvantages such as maldistributions …

In a clear and concise manner, this book explains how to apply concepts in chemical
reaction engineering and transport phenomena to the design of catalytic combustion …

The need for reliable 3-way catalytic converter modeling in the design of demanding
exhaust systems for low-emitting vehicles has been widely recognised. Although a number …

Monolith reactors have been widely used as catalytic converters in the automobile industry.
