Description:
The NOx emission control market for vehicles reached $2 billion in the United States in 2010, as reported by Manufacturers of Emission Controls Association. There is still no effective technology that can have high NOx removal efficiency and low PGM usage. The proposed technology with low PGM usage, and therefore a low cost, will help to penetrate and place 3D Array Technology’s product in a good market position.
