Thermal Analysis on De-activation of Aged Three Way Catalysts Wang Daxiang, Wang Liqiong, Zhang Xingyan, Feng Changgen (School of Mechno-Electronic Engineering, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081) Abstract In present paper, FTA was applied to analyze thermal de-activation of Pd-M1M2Ox/g-Al2O3 three way catalysts (TWC). A detailed fault tree has been gotten accordingly. The fault tree was calculated by Boer Algebra, and fourteen parameters of process events were found out to be the reasons for de-activation. The structure importance of these events was discussed. At the end, the effects of preparation parameter on thermal durability of TWC were analyzed. It is shown that FTA can be used to analyze the crucial factors to cause the de-activation of the aged TWC.
