WHAT IS FUNCTION OF CATALYTIC CONVERTER?
Catalytic converter is basically a mechanism for CAR ENGINE for both diesel and petrol to make it less toxic. The air emitted by the exhaust system of a vehicle which is made by the internal combustion inside the engine which is very toxic in nature and harm the environment. Polluted element reduction or you can say the (REDOX REACTION ) take place by the CATALYTIC CONVERTER to make the emission gases less effective to environment.
Catalytic converter in automobile is installed in the exhaust pipe its like the honey comb structure and filter the gases. There is metallic foil in the devises by which the 2 way or 3 way chemical reduction reaction take place and the toxic component like carbonmonoxide is removed.
2 WAY REACTION
This type of reaction takes place when the carbon monooxide is converted to carbon-di-oxide.
For the diesel engine the UN-burnt hydro-carbon or partially burnt hydro-carbon is removed by the oxidation.
3 WAY REACTION
In the THREE way reaction the catalytic converter reduces the amount of emission of nitrogen oxide (N2), nitrogen mono-Oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O)
Can we convert every car into catalic converter
