Catalysts for Diesel Engines

Environmental experts worldwide have recognized diesel emissions as a health risks. Governments around the world have adopted tighter emission standards related to NOx and Particulate Matter (PM) from diesel-powered vehicles. In particular, the adoption of the Euro IV standards in 2005 and Euro V regulations that will likely be adopted in 2008 will have a dramatic impact on the use of emission control devices in Europe. Current techniques for meeting emissions standards in diesel vehicles require the use of several methods, including diesel oxidation catalysts ("DOCs"), Catalyzed Diesel Particulate Filters ("CDPFs") and Selective Catalytic Reduction ("SCR") systems.

CSI Solution
Catalytic Solutions has been producing diesel oxidation catalysts since 2000. In addition, we are working with leading auto and substrate manufacturers to develop DOCs, CDPFs and SCR systems utilizing our MPC^®technology to meet European light and heavy duty regulations with minimal or no PGMs. Test results indicate that our solution can reduce PGM utilization by over 80% and has superior stability and durability to similar products made by our competitors.
