abatement of pollutants from the next generation automobile engine exhaust. The focus is on evaluating and developing new_x000D_
generation of catalysts for the oxidation of light hydrocarbons under both fuel-lean and fuel rich conditions with a multidisciplinary_x000D_
approach, combining catalyst synthesis, catalyst manufacturing, material characterizations, and activity evaluation. The program_x000D_
will utilize the highly specialized spectroscopy and microscopy instrumentation at the recently established Ontario Centre for_x000D_
Characterization of Advanced Materials (OCCAM) for directly probing the catalyst materials and understanding the active sites_x000D_
needed to activate the light hydrocarbons at the exhaust streams. A separate task will aim to translate the understanding of_x000D_
catalytic chemistry at the fundamental level to technology evaluation with real engine exhaust at Fords Powertrain Engineering_x000D_
