Abstract
A catalytic converter includes a hydrocarbon catalyst trap including BEA zeolite configured to adsorb iso-octane at ambient temperatures and desorb iso-octane at temperatures between 150° C. and 170° C., and active metal supercage impregnated USY zeolite configured to adsorb and coke iso-octane at temperatures greater than 150° C.
Claims20
A catalytic converter comprising:
- a hydrocarbon catalyst trap including BEA zeolite configured to adsorb iso-octane at ambient temperatures and desorb iso-octane at temperatures between 150° C. and 170° C., and active metal supercage impregnated USY zeolite configured to adsorb and coke iso-octane at temperatures greater than 150° C.
A catalytic trap comprising:
- BEA zeolite configured to adsorb iso-octane at ambient temperatures and desorb iso-octane at temperatures between 150° C. and 170° C.;
- precious metal supercage impregnated USY zeolite in contact with the BEA zeolite, and configured to adsorb and coke iso-octane at temperatures greater than 150° C.;
- and
- active metal supercage impregnated BEA zeolite disposed upstream of the BEA zeolite and configured to adsorb toluene at ambient temperatures.
