An oxidation catalyst is a substance that helps speed up a chemical reaction called oxidation. It helps convert harmful pollutants into less harmful substances, making it important in reducing pollution and improving air quality. Full definition
For compliance with U.S. emissions standards (Tier 2 Bin 5 emission regulations), the engine relies on a new catalytic converter system that brings together diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), NOx trap catalyst (NTC) and diesel particulate filter (DPF) technologies. (thetorquereport.com)
