Abstract
Three way catalysts were dispersed over the surface of an anodized Ti wire in order to promptly eliminate hydrocarbons remained in cold-star t-exhaust gas from an automobile engine. The anodized wire was heated up to 623 K or higher in 30 sec simply by loading 13 V to the ends of the wire, which resulted in abatement of 50% hydrocarbons in the cold- start-exhausts within 30 sec just after an engine ignition.
