CAPoC7 : Seventh International Congress on Catalysis and Automotive Pollution Control

The Congress will be held at August 30 - September 1, 2006

Abstract

The continuing interest in Catalysis and Automotive Pollution Control (CAPoC) has supported us in organising a seventh international congress in this successful series. Five half-day sessions will give an account of the state of the art in this field and discuss technical perspectives and challenges in relation to present and future legislative regulations.

All topics related to applications and requirements of catalysis in automotive (including cars, light and heavy duty vehicles) emission control will be considered such as

catalyst and sorption technologies (TWC, cold start emission, lean burn of gasoline and diesel : SCR, storage and other NO_x emission control).
materials for catalysts, washcoat and fuel-borne catalysts (additives).
particulate emission control.
aftertreatment for CNG and H₂ engines.
on-board reforming of fuels.
sustainable fuel technologies.
off-cycle emissions and unregulated pollutants.
integrated emission control systems, sensors, on-board diagnostics.
modelling of aftertreatment systems and catalyst characterisation.
fuel cell catalysis.
innovative technologies (new materials, recovery of precious metals).

Location

The congress will be held at the "Institut de Sociologie Solvay", avenue Jeanne, 44, B-1050 Brussels (on the University Campus "Solbosch").
