What is the easiest way to keep DPF's and EGR valves injectors clean and well lubricated?
What is a catalytic converter?
1. Hydrocarbons (in the form of unburned petrol or diesel)
2. Carbon monoxide (formed by the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels)
3. Nitrogen oxides (created when the heat in the engine forces nitrogen in the air to combine with oxygen)
Carbon monoxide is a poison for any air-breathing animal. Nitrogen oxides lead to smog and acid rain, and hydrocarbons produce smog. In a catalytic converter, a catalyst (in the form of platinum and palladium) is coated onto a ceramic honeycomb or ceramic beads that are housed in a muffler-like package attached to the exhaust pipe. The catalyst helps to convert carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide. It converts the hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide and water. It also converts the nitrogen oxides back into nitrogen and oxygen.
