Elsevier Catalysis and Automotive Pollution Control IV Vol 116

As the global number of motor vehicles continues to grow, the environmental impact of internal combustion engines remains a significant challenge. Catalysis and Automotive Pollution Control IV (Volume 116) provides essential research within the Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis series. This volume addresses the increasing presence of gaseous pollutants in the atmosphere caused by automobile exhaust. With vehicle numbers having risen from 50 to 700 million over the last 50 years, the need for effective pollutant elimination is more pressing than ever. This book examines the technical aspects of managing emissions in a world where vehicles remain a primary mode of transport despite energy crises and economic shifts. It serves as a specialized resource for understanding the chemistry and processes required to mitigate the environmental effects of vehicular exhaust gases.
