Catalytic
Converters
Three-way Catalytic Converters transform
pollutants into harmless gases before releasing them into the environment. These
converters generally consist of a stainless steel housing containing the catalytically
active material applied onto a ceramic or metallic monolith as support.
Responsible for the transformation of the pollutants into harmless gases
is the catalytically active material, called "washcoat".
This material consists of a combination of various oxides and metals like platinum, palladium and rhodium incorporated
into a porous structure which allows intimate contact with the exhaust gas. The composition and the structure enable
the interaction with the exhaust gas and the chemical transformation into
harmless compounds.

Diesel Particulate
Filters (DPF)
A DPF is the best solution to reduce diesel
particulate emissions. A special coating facilitates a burn-off of the
trapped soot particles and therefore allows for continuous
operation without the built-up of soot and an increase of
backpressure in the exhaust system.
