FAQ: Catalytic Converters
How does Catalytic Converters work?
Catalytic converters function by converting harmful pollutants in exhaust gases into less toxic substances. Inside the converter, a catalyst composed of precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium facilitates chemical reactions. These reactions transform carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides into carbon dioxide, water vapor, and nitrogen gas, significantly reducing emissions released into the atmosphere. The converter typically comprises a ceramic honeycomb structure coated with the catalyst, maximizing surface area for efficient chemical interactions.
