Abstract

The activity of Ag-based catalysts in soot oxidation using NO2 and oxygen as oxidants has been characterized in laboratory tests (TGA) and under real conditions on an engine dynamometer. Under low-temperature NO2-assisted and high-temperature O2-assisted soot oxidation conditions, the activity of Ag-based catalysts was found to be comparable or higher than that of commercial Pt-catalysts. In addition, Ag-based compositions also revealed noticeable NO x storage, some passive NO x reduction ability, and activity in NO oxidation. Ag-catalysts characterized in the present paper may be promising for the retrofit applications and high-temperature periodical regenerations with air for diesel passenger cars.
