Who we are
2013 / Four-Way Conversion Catalyst
BASF presents the first FWC™ four-way conversion catalyst for gasoline engines. Hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxides but also particulates from the exhaust can be reduced by this innovative technology.
Thereby, BASF further develops an innovation of the Engelhard Corporation acquired in 2006. This company brought the three-way catalytic converter on the market in 1976, and thus facilitated a breakthrough for emission control of vehicles.
