Evaluation of Emissions from Low Mileage Catalysts on a Light-Duty Methanol-Fueled Vehicle

摘要

The report describes the results of testing methanol catalyst in a two-phased program. Phase I involved the use of base metal or lightly loaded noble metal catalysts in three-way and oxidation catalyst modes. Phase II involved the use of heavily loaded noble-metal catalysts in an effort to reduce hydrocarbon and aldehyde emissions to very low levels.
