| Abstract | Exhaust gas emissions from passenger cars with traditional gasoline engines have been markedly reduced over the three decades since the introduction of catalysts. The first oxidation catalysts were superseded by two-catalyst three-way systems that were followed by single three-way catalysts (TWCs). The first Pt/Rh-based TWCs formulations were refined by incorporating increasingly thermally stable ceria-based components to keep the surface composition close to stochiometric during exhaust gas composition fluctuations. Substituting Pd for Pt gave further improvement in some applications, as can zoning catalyst type or loading on a single substrate. Optimisation of cell density, geometric area, and thermal capacity of the substrate provided additional benefits. Modern advanced TWCs are very thermally stable so they can be mounted directly on the exhaust manifold. Here, with a rapid engine start-up strategy catalyst operating temperatures are quickly achieved after the engine is started. As a result extremely low emissions can be achieved, and computer models are used to predict the performance of different catalyst loadings and layouts. This is a powerful tool in the design of TWC systems for new engines/vehicles to predict what will be optimal, and today high performance from relatively very low PGM loadings is possible, in spite of increasingly stringent tailpipe emissions limits and distances over which they must be maintained. Now the performance of TWCs is monitored during actual on road driving, and this is done via measurement of the catalyst oxygen storage capacity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
