The objective of this work was to determine the durability performance of stoichiometric dual-bed converters designed for light- and medium-duty natural gas vehicle applications. Converters using palladium-only (Pd) rear bricks were to be compared to Chrysler's production intent dual brick platinum/rhodium (Pt/Rh) converter. Durability performance benefits of varying noble metal loadings were to be evaluated. A high severity engine aging procedure was to be developed, where 300 hours would approximate 50,000 or more vehicle miles, and 600 hours would approximate 100,000 or more vehicle miles.
