Low temperature plasma-driven catalysis of nanotitanium dioxide for vehicle exhaust clearance

Summary form only given. The vehicle exhaust gas is one of the major causing environmental pollution. It contains a mass of VOC and NOx, which is very harmful to human body. In order to remove pollutants from automotive exhaust, many studies about plasma-driven catalysis for VOC or NOx gas purification have been done. However, heir studies were based on simulated gases( mixed gases or single gas), which were quite different from vehicle exhaust gas, which were quite different from real vehicle exhaust gas from the running car. The complex component from vehicle exhaust will interact with each other during the purification process when catalyzed by plasma.
