'''Converter''' is a device located in the exhaust system of all modern motor vehicles. It is an important device in the exhaust gas de-pollution process, which reduces harmful environmental exhaust emissions of motor vehicle’s combustion cycle by-products. | |||
Its function is to chemically change harmful pollutants that the engine has combusted in the process of its various starting, driving, power and idle conditions.These pollutants include carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides, etc. A catalytic converter chemically changes these into harmless substances like carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water vapour. | |||
