A low thermal mass, metal monolith, catalytic converter, was tested for reducing automotive emissions for applications both as lightoff and main converters. FTP testing was carried out to measure the first four minutes of Bag 1 emissions from a 2.2l, fuel-injected Plymouth Reliant, at New York State, Automotive Emissions Laboratory, Albany (NY-AEL). The car had aproximately 17,000 miles when tested and its driving history had been catalogued by NY-AEL. Both resistively heated and non-resistive mini-converter systems were tested in series with a conventional replacement new automotive converter.
