Abstract

The chapter reviews the state of the art in various forms of aftertreatment, namely, oxidation catalysts, lean-NOx traps, particulate filters and selective catalytic reduction. The focus is on practical packaging issues faced by the manufacturer, rather than fundamental research. The constraints on vehicle design unique to the light-duty market are emphasised. It is shown how emissions legislation is ‘technology-forcing’, and influences the design decisions made by the vehicle manufacturer.
