The CHASS project tackles the harmful nitrogen oxides emissions from heavy-duty diesel vehicles by focusing on improving copper-based catalysts. These catalysts, crucial for reducing emissions, degrade over time due to exposure to sulphur dioxide and high temperatures. Through advanced modelling and characterization techniques, the multi-institution initiative aims to understand and mitigate this degradation. Four early-stage researchers, as part of a doctoral training program, are working with world-leading experts to enhance the performance of these catalysts, ultimately improving their efficiency in removing nitrogen oxides.
