His most recent work is focused on DeNOx aftertreatment technologies for vehicles, as well as on fundamental and engineering aspects concerning the development of novel structured catalysts and reactors.  Tronconi has authored or co-authored over 180 scientific publications in international journals and is the inventor of 10 patents.

"It covers a spectrum of topics beyond just the needs of SCR researchers: It also provides plenty of easy-to-digest, well-written, thorough information and insights for anybody seriously active in NOx reduction ... . this book is a must for any library, organization or individual having a primary or even a secondary interest in Diesel NOx emission reduction, heterogeneous catalysis in Diesel emission mitigation or in related aspects ... ." (Mansour Masoudi, Emission Control Science and Technology, Vol. 1, 2015)

"An important up-to-date survey of the state of SCR science and technology that over recent years has undergone tremendous advances. ... will be of value to researchers working in the SCR area as well as a reference for students in chemistry, catalysis and chemical engineering. The editors are to be congratulated for bringing together so many eminent contributors and completing such a major endeavour. This book should therefore be made available in academic and industrial research libraries ... ." (Martyn V. Twigg, Johnson Matthey Technology Review, Vol. 59 (3), 2015)
