COLD START CATALYST AND ITS USE IN EXHAUST SYSTEMS

摘要

A cold start catalyst is disclosed. The cold start catalyst comprises a zeolite catalyst and a supported platinum group metal catalyst. The zeolite catalyst comprises a base metal, a noble metal, and a zeolite. The supported platinum group metal catalyst comprises one or more platinum group metals and one or more inorganic oxide carriers. The invention also includes an exhaust system comprising the cold start catalyst. The cold start catalyst and the process result in improved NOx storage and NOx conversion, improved hydrocarbon storage and conversion, and improved CO oxidation through the cold start period.
