The catalytic activities of the catalysts as well as influencing factors on catalytic activity have been investigated for the simultaneous removal of NOx and diesel soot particulate. An increase in catalytic activity for the selective reduction of NOx was observed with Ag addition in these perovskite oxides, especially with 5% Ag loading. This catalyst could be a promising candidate of catalytic material for the simultaneous elimination of NOx and diesel soot.展开更多
