Exhaust Catalyst System Committee

1.Aim of activity

With the gathering of domestic exhaust catalyst-related manufacturers, engine manufacturers, and public institutions such as universities conducting catalyst research, we will discuss issues related to exhaust catalysts and catalyst systems, and cooperative technological development of engines and catalysts. Provide a place to discuss things like direction. in particular,
1) Exchange general information regarding exhaust catalyst technology, trends in exhaust-related laws and regulations, etc.
2) Introducing development and research cases of each company and organization and sharing various issues in exhaust catalysts and their systems.
3) Disseminate information on exhaust catalysts and their systems, and recognize the challenges of developing exhaust catalyst technology that meets social and environmental needs.
