Improved Automotive NO x Aftertreatment System: Metal Ammine Complexes as NH3 Source for SCR Using Fe-Containing Zeolite Catalysts

Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Ammonia storage is a challenge in the selective catalytic reduction of NO x in vehicles. We propose a new system, based on metal ammines as the ammonia source. In combination with iron containing zeolites as the SCR catalyst it should be possible to obtain a low temperature system for NO x removal.
