katalytatorernas
Katalytatorernas, commonly known as catalytic converters, are essential automotive emission control devices designed to reduce the toxicity of exhaust gases from internal combustion engines. These devices utilize a catalytic reaction to convert harmful pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), unburned hydrocarbons (HC), and nitrogen oxides (NOx), into less harmful substances like carbon dioxide (CO₂), water vapor (H₂O), and nitrogen (N₂).
The core component of a catalytic converter is the catalyst, typically composed of a ceramic or metallic
Catalytic converters were first introduced in the United States in the mid-1970s as part of stricter emissions
While highly effective, catalytic converters can degrade over time due to factors such as high temperatures,
