Method Reduces Nitrogen Oxide Emission Levels
Researchers at Purdue University have developed a method of synthesizing chabazite, a common zeolite, by controlling the framework of key elements such as aluminum and silicon. Chabazite, natural or artificial, can be used to reduce the levels of NOx pollutants that are formed and emitted through diesel engine exhaust. Through this controlled method of synthesis, an optimum chabazite structure can be formed, allowing for better sequestration of NOx pollutants. The production of such material can reduce emission levels and bring down the level of harmful gases in the air, leaving a clean living environment.
