  2. Check engine light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_engine_light

    A check engine light or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL), is a tell-tale that a computerized engine-management system uses to indicate a malfunction or problem with the vehicle ranging from minor (such as a loose gas cap) to serious (worn spark plugs, engine problems or a faulty oil valve, etc.).

  3. Catalytic converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_converter

    A three-way catalytic converter on a gasoline-powered 1996 Dodge Ram Simulation of flow inside a catalytic converter. A catalytic converter is an exhaust emission control device which converts toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction.

  4. NOx adsorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx_adsorber

    A NO x adsorber is designed to reduce oxides of nitrogen emitted in the exhaust gas of a lean burn internal combustion engine. Lean burn engines, particularly diesels , present a special challenge to emission control system designers because of the relatively high levels of O 2 (atmospheric oxygen ) in the exhaust gas.

  5. Monolith (catalyst support) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monolith_(catalyst_support)

    High surface area facilitates catalytic reaction or filtration. The open spaces in the cross-sectional area are 72 to 87% of the frontal area, so resistance to the flow of gases through the holes is low, which minimizes energy consumed forcing gases through the structure. The monolith is a substrate that supports a catalyst.

  6. Catalyst poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalyst_poisoning

    In catalytic converters used on automobiles, the combustion of leaded gasoline produces elemental lead, lead(II) oxide, lead(II) chloride, and lead(II) bromide. Lead alloys with the metals present in the catalyst, while lead oxides and halides coat the catalyst's surfaces, reducing the converter's ability to reduce NOx emissions.

  7. Selective catalytic reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_catalytic_reduction

    SCR systems are now the preferred method for meeting Tier 4 Final and EURO 6 diesel emissions standards for heavy trucks, cars and light commercial vehicles. As a result, emissions of NOx, particulates , and hydrocarbons have been lowered by as much as 95% when compared with pre-emissions engines.

  8. Catalytic combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_combustion

    Catalytic combustion is a chemical process which uses a catalyst to speed desired oxidation reactions of fuel and so reduce the formation of undesired products, especially pollutant nitrogen oxide gases (NO x) far below what can be achieved without catalysts. The process was discovered in the 1950s by Catalytic Combustion LLC.

  9. Hydrodesulfurization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrodesulfurization

    Hydrodesulfurization or hydrodesulphurisation (Commonwealth English; see spelling differences) (HDS), also called hydrotreatment or hydrotreating, is a catalytic chemical process widely used to remove sulfur (S) from natural gas and from refined petroleum products, such as gasoline or petrol, jet fuel, kerosene, diesel fuel, and fuel oils.
