The catalyst part is used in cars as a vital part in the process of converting harmful gases into less polluting gases. This part, with the help of chemical processes, converts nitrogen oxide (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons into harmless gases such as carbon dioxide, oxygen and water. By using the catalyst part, cars are able to reduce air pollutants and protect the environment.
If we want to say what a catalyst is, it should be said that the catalyst part has a very vital function in cars. This part is used as a vehicle system equipment to reduce air pollutants. Typically, this part is located in the exhaust pipe of the car and is responsible for converting harmful gases such as nitrogen oxide (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons and solid particles into harmless gases such as carbon dioxide, oxygen and water. To carry out this chemical process, the catalyst consists of a catalytic active substance that converts harmful gases into harmless gases with the help of heat and oxygen. This process is known as "catalytic conversion". According to the size and type of car engine, different types of catalyst parts are used. Also keep in mind that it doesn't matter if you buy the car in installments or Iran Khodro products, this part is present in all the cars in the market.
In general, the use of exhaust catalyst in Cars reduce air pollutants such as CO and HC by 80-90% and NOx by 30-50% in the exhaust. In addition, using the catalyst part in the car system saves fuel and reduces car maintenance costs. For this reason, the catalyst part is considered as one of the main equipment of the car system.
What is an exhaust catalyst?
Exhaust catalyst is a technological device that is used to reduce pollutants in exhaust gases from internal combustion engines. This device is made of a combination of chemical elements such as platinum, rhodium and palladium that act as a catalyst. The main task of the exhaust catalyst is to convert polluting gases into better quality gases. These pollutants include nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons, which directly and indirectly lead to irreparable damage if they enter biological communities and the environment.
What is inside the car catalyst?
Catalysts are an important part of automotive technology that improves the performance and efficiency of engines. Catalyst is a chemical system in which fuel burning waste materials are converted into less harmful solid materials, neutral hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide. Inside the catalyst, chemical compounds such as platinum, rhodium and palladium are used.
In today's cars, the catalyst is used as a vital part in the exhaust gas system. This part can be a branched carbon filter, an oxidation catalyst, an oxidation reduction catalyst, a heat transfer catalyst, or an oxygen-separation catalyst. In addition, the catalyst also functions as a fuel injection system unit. In high-speed cars, the catalyst performs chemical conversion by injecting fuel with air into it in order to improve engine performance. By buying domestic cars that are equipped with catalytic converters, you can make a big contribution to the country's environmental system.
