Numerical Design of Granular Support for Three-Way Catalyzed Solid- and Porous-Particles Membrane Filters

A granular substrate used as a support for a three-way catalyzed (TWC) solid-particle membrane filter was investigated through numerical simulation. The proposed support could reduce the amount of required catalyst material by 39% and lower the pressure drop by 33%, compared to a conventional filter...

Sumario:A granular substrate used as a support for a three-way catalyzed (TWC) solid-particle membrane filter was investigated through numerical simulation. The proposed support could reduce the amount of required catalyst material by 39% and lower the pressure drop by 33%, compared to a conventional filter, while achieving almost 100% soot-filtration. Moreover, TWC porous particles, which are designed to introduce a fluid flow into their interconnected pore network, further decrease the pressure drop. However, a trade-off exists between the amount of the introduced fluid flow and the specific surface area.
