4th Conference MinNOx 12 - 13 Jun 2012
Berlin, Germany
Downstream technologies for reducing nitrogen-oxide emissions from diesel vehicles (applications for NOx-absorption catalysts (NAC) or selective catalytic reduction (SCR) – ranging from component development and system integration to cost optimization, consumption- and environment-related influences and from experience in production to perspectives resulting from changes in the legal framework)
Downstream technologies for reducing nitrogen-oxide emissions for lean-burn spark-ignition combustion concepts
Effects of increasing powertrain electrification on exhaust gas aftertreatment (hybridization concepts, electrically assisted exhaust-gas aftertreatment components)
SCR for commercial applications (denoxing concepts for different markets, commercialvehicle and “off-road” applications, impacts on fuel economy and the environment)
Engine-based measures for reducing NOx and their effects on exhaust gas aftertreatment (EGR concepts, modern combustion processes and injection strategies and the influence they have on denoxing, overall system approaches)
MinNOx diagnostics and control strategies (OBD for Europe and the USA, sensor development, closed-loop control strategies)
Other relevant topics (advances in catalyst and component development, reducing-agent infrastructure, emission and emission-control trends, health aspects, development methodology, research results, alternative approaches to exhaust gas aftertreatment etc.)

CAPoC9 29 - 31 Aug 2012
Brussels, Belgium
“Ninth International Congress on Catalysis and Automotive Pollution Control”
All topics related to applications and requirements of catalysis in automotive (including cars, light and heavy duty vehicles) emission control will be considered such as:
Catalyst and sorption technologies (TWC, cold start emission, lean-burn of gasoline and diesel: SCR, storage and other NOx emission control),
Particulate emission control for both diesel and gasoline engines,
Aftertreatment for gaseous HC, H2 and renewable or reformulated fuel mixtures,
Emission control for hybrid vehicles,
Off-cycles emissions and unregulated pollutants (e.g. greenhouse gases),
Materials for catalysts, washcoat and fuel-borne catalysts (additives),
Modelling of aftertreatment systems and catalyst characterisation,
Integrated emission control systems, on-board diagnostics,
Sustainable fuel technologies,
Innovative technologies (new materials, recovery of precious metals).
