Technical Details
The NOx adsorber is based on a catalytic converter support that has been coated with a special washcoat containing zeolites.
Alkali/alkaline oxide (carbonate) can also be used as a NOx absorber.
Their effective storage changes with temperature. They start to store NOx between 150 and 200C and at 500C the storage diminishes rapidly.

Famous quotes containing the words technical and/or details:
“The best work of artists in any age is the work of innocence liberated by technical knowledge. The laboratory experiments that led to the theory of pure color equipped the impressionists to paint nature as if it had only just been created.”
—Nancy Hale (b. 1908)
“Different persons growing up in the same language are like different bushes trimmed and trained to take the shape of identical elephants. The anatomical details of twigs and branches will fulfill the elephantine form differently from bush to bush, but the overall outward results are alike.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
