heal.abstract	The effect of a longitudinal parabolic active metal distribution on the performance of a monolithic converter is reported. On the basis of the results of numerical calculations, the improvement in the performance of the catalytic converter with parabolic axial active material distribution compared with the respective uniform distribution is verified. In addition, in cases where operating conditions fail to light-off (or ignite) the catalytic system with uniform material distribution, high conversions can be achieved by catalysts with parabolic distribution of the active material, for the same quantity of precious metal. © 1993 American Chemical Society.	en
