Development of low cost catalytic converter from non-precious metals

Development of low cost catalytic converter from non-precious metals

The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the uses of non-precious metals for the development catalytic converters. Copper powder and nickel catalyst were chosen as the alternative catalysts to reduce the use of precious group metals (PGMs) platinum, palladium, and rhodium. Simulation by COMSOL has...
