Stiff exhaust emission regulations set for limiting the air pollution caused by motor vehicles have oriented the
producers and researchers to investigate new techniques to reduce exhaust emissions. The main pollutants
caused by diesel engines are particle matters (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon
monoxides (CO). Among the preventive actions to keep the emissions caused by motor vehicles at a certain level
are enhancing the fuel quality, preventing the pollutant formation in the engine, and developing the post-combustion
emission control systems. There are many different technologies used for reducing the amount of
pollutants in diesel engine exhausts. In this study, the main techniques applied for reducing these pollutants
catalytically.
