FTIR spectroscopy, useful technology for simultaneous and continuous measurement of the various components of the automotive exhaust gas, is utilized to investigate catalytic reaction charactristics of methane and a few unregulated exhaust emissions of NGV. Major findings are (1) catalytic reaction characteristics of methane measured in unsteady states of varying temperature are similar to those measured in steady states, (2) about 24 % of NO was oxidized to $NO_2$ as soon as they encounter catalysts, (3) study of formaldehyde suffers from difficulties in measurement due to the proximity in wavenumber of formaldehyde and methane, and requires an analyzer of higher resolution and accuracy than used in this study.
