Ludwigshafen (ots)

In this Podcast you will learn about how catalysts technology can 
help to make exhaust fumes of diesel vehicles cleaner
Today's diesel engines are more than a match for gasoline engines.
In terms of design a diesel is much more efficient: It uses less fuel
and emits less CO2. To purify diesel exhaust fumes is a challenge and
only possible because manufacturers of catalytic converters like BASF
Catalysts are continually improving their exhaust gas after treatment
systems.
Listen to the audio reportage with the experts Andreas Binder and 
Dr. Frank Mönkeberg of BASF Catalysts.
