1. A system, comprising:
an exhaust gas source that provides exhaust gas pollutants;
a primary catalytic converter coupled downstream of the exhaust gas source;
a particulate filter coupled downstream of the primary catalytic converter;
a first adsorption unit, configured to adsorb exhaust gas pollutants, coupled downstream of the particulate filter, and
a second adsorption unit, configured to adsorb exhaust gas pollutants, coupled downstream of the first adsorption unit,
wherein the first and second adsorption units include one or more heating elements, and
wherein the exhaust gas pollutants are selected from the group consisting of CO, SOx, NH3, aldehydes, ketones, and combinations thereof.
