    Abstract
    According to the reports of the Tehran Air Quality Control Company, mobile sources are responsible for the emission of 70-85% of air pollutant in this metropolis. Over the past decades, compressed natural gas (CNG) is known as a cleaner fuel and a suitable alternative to gasoline and diesel fuels in the transportation section in some countries. However, methane emissions from natural gas vehicles is a significant challenge because it is a potent greenhouse gas and plays important role in global warming. In addition, because of another pollutant emissions from these vehicles, exhaust gas treatment is a crucial issue. Using Three-Way catalysts (TWC) is the conventional method in order to...
