Clean air has never been more important
Air pollution affects billions of people worldwide and remains one of the most significant challenges to public health and the environment. As energy demand increases and industries face tighter regulatory requirements, reducing harmful emissions is critical.
Across transportation, power generation, data centres, mining and manufacturing, reducing pollutants is a necessary step towards cleaner air for all.
Why emission control technology matters
Effective emissions control solutions play a vital role in reducing harmful pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons, and particulate matter (PM). These emissions impact air quality, human health and the wider environment. With global regulations evolving, industries need advanced, proven emission control technologies that deliver reliable performance and long-term sustainability. These solutions are critical in supporting the transition to cleaner mobility alongside technologies like battery electric and hydrogen powered vehicles, while also reducing emissions from hard-to-abate industrial sectors. That’s where Johnson Mathey comes in.

Leaders in emissions control
Johnson Matthey has been at the forefront of emissions control for decades. Our world class expertise in metals chemistry and catalytic technologies allows us to continuously innovate solutions that help customers achieve their sustainability goals.
Our technologies address some of the largest sources of emissions, including power plants, shipping vessels, mining operations, data centres and industrial processes, as well as mobile emissions from engines and transportation. They help to remove pollutants before they enter the atmosphere and enable our customers to meet global emissions standards and emissions legislation worldwide.
Our catalyst-based emissions technologies are deployed across a wide range of applications, including:
- Diesel and gasoline engines
- Backup generators for data centres
- Gas turbines
- Power generation, including waste incinerators
- Shipping
- Mining operations
- Industrial processes, including glass and cement manufacturing
- Petrochemical processing
- Food and agricultural operations
- High temperature fuel cell applications, such as solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs)
Advancing clean air and clean mobility
As emissions standards continue to evolve, the role of emissions control technologies remains critical.
Johnson Matthey continues to invest in innovation by developing next-generation catalyst and materials technologies that enable cleaner air across transport and industry. From supporting the transition to ultra-low and zero-emission mobility, to reducing emissions in the most challenging industrial environments, we are helping shape a cleaner, more sustainable future.
