Published in Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Platinum-Group Elements (PGEs, i.e. platinum; Pt, palladium; Pd and rhodium; Rh) are extensively employed in the production of automotive catalytic converters to catalyze and control harmful emissions from exhaust fumes. But catalytic converters wear out over time and the emission of PGEs along with the exhaust fumes are nowadays known to be the ma...
