Chemical Engineering Kinetics

Guy B. Marin (Eds.)978-0-12-373899-8

This volume on Automotive Emission Control emphasises the role of chemical engineering in automotive emission control. Clearly the development of mathematical models describing the different functions of the converter(s), as well as their interaction, has been and still is crucial. Each of the contributions advocates the implementation of the latter, combined with experimental validation, rather than engaging into elaborate experimental programs.
