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:
“I rather think the cinema will die. Look at the energy being exerted to revive it—yesterday it was color, today three dimensions. I don’t give it forty years more. Witness the decline of conversation. Only the Irish have remained incomparable conversationalists, maybe because technical progress has passed them by.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1984)
“Patience is a most necessary qualification for business; many a man would rather you heard his story than granted his request. One must seem to hear the unreasonable demands of the petulant, unmoved, and the tedious details of the dull, untired. That is the least price that a man must pay for a high station.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
