Book description
Catalytic Air Pollution Control: Commercial Technology is the primary
source for commercial catalytic air pollution control technology,
offering engineers a comprehensive account of all modern catalytic
technology. This Third Edition covers all the new advances in technology
in automotive catalyst control technology, diesel engine catalyst
control technology, small engine catalyst control technology, and
alternate sustainable fuels for auto and diesel.
Ronald M. Heck, PHD, is President of RMH Consulting, where he
specializes in consultation on environmental catalysis for auto,
diesel, and stationary sources; general catalysis; fuel cells;
reaction engineering; combustion technology; and chemical engineering.
Previously, Dr. Heck was a Research Manager responsible for developing
new catalyst technology for Engelhard Corporation's worldwide
customers in environmental catalysis.
Robert J. Farrauto, PHD, is a Research Fellow at BASF Catalysts and
Adjunct Professor in the Earth and Environmental Engineering
Department of Columbia University in the City of New York, where he
teaches courses in catalysis and supervises graduate student research.
His responsibilities at BASF Catalysts include the development of
advanced catalysts for the hydrogen economy. He has worked extensively
in the development of catalysts for the environmental, petroleum, and
chemical industries.
Suresh T. Gulati, PHD, is a Consultant to the Science and Technology
Division of Corning. He has also been a research fellow with Corning,
specializing in the behavior of brittle materials. Dr. Gulati has many
years of experience working with automotive substrates, with an
emphasis on their design and durability for diesel and passenger car
applications.
