About AECC

The role of AECC

AECC is the international, Brussels-based association of European companies operating worldwide in the research, development, testing and manufacture of key sustainable technologies for mobile and stationary applications. AECC was first set up in 1978 and is a non-profit organisation with a scientific purpose.

Members’ products include: substrates for catalysts and filters; catalysts (substrates with catalytic materials incorporated or coated); adsorbers; filter-based technologies; and core components for fuel cells and electrolysers.

AECC members’ emission control technologies are integrated into the exhaust systems of cars, commercial vehicles, buses, motorcycles and construction equipment in Europe, as well as chimneys of a wide variety of industrial installations. It is increasingly being used in railway locomotives and railcars, ships and inland waterway vessels and pleasure craft.

AECC members also produce core components that are integrated into hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysers for mobile and stationary applications.

 

The principal objectives of the Association are:

TO PROMOTE

the technological and economic development of sustainable components and systems

TO STRIVE

to achieve future air quality and climate requirements for mobile and stationary emissions sources, by supplying sustainable components and systems

TO FOCUS

TO ADVOCATE

to legislative bodies and opinion leaders to promote the high performance of sustainable components and systems
