Which outcome primarily disables NOx reduction when exhaust temperature decreases below catalyst activation limits?

A)Reactive site poisoning increases rapidly
B)Adsorption energy barriers become insurmountable
C)Arrhenius kinetics restrict reaction rate
D)Internal diffusion pathways constrict drastically

💡 Explanation

Reaction rates depend exponentially on temperature; therefore, Arrhenius kinetics limits NOx reduction because the reaction rate slows dramatically below the activation temperature, rather than active site poisoning which dominates at very high temperatures.
