Catalytic Converter Cleaning Machine
WHAT IS CATALYTIC CONVERTER ?
A Catalytic Converter is an exhaust emission control device that converts toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxi pollutants by catalyzing in a Redox Reaction.
WHAT IS INSIDE A CATALYTIC CONVERTER ?
The catalyst inside a catalytic converter is made typically from platinum or a similar metal, such as rhodium or palladium. Gases flow through a ceramic honeycomb structure located within the cat housing. This is lined with metals that have specific jobs that play a role in reducing emissions. There are two main types of catalysts that might be featured in a car:
Reduction catalysts: Help reduce nitrogen oxide pollution by removing oxygens. Nitrogen oxides are broken up into nitrogen and oxygen gases, which on their own are harmless.
Oxidation Catalysts: Used to change carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide through an opposite process of adding oxygen.
Also located near the catalytic converter is an oxygen (O2) sensor, which works to tell a car’s electronic control unit (ECU) how much oxygen is found in the exhaust gases. This helps a vehicle run on a more efficient air/fuel ratio, allowing the engine to supply the converter with enough oxygen to complete the oxidation process.
WHY CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEED TO BE CLEANED ?
Overtime, depending upon the quality of fuels and usage, Catalytic Converters get clogged with deposits that need to be cleaned.
If they are not cleaned then following Faults may occur
If they are not cleaned then following Faults may occur
-
- Declining Fuel Efficiency
- Check Warning Light
- Smelling Rotten Eggs
- Issues Starting the Engine
- Poor Acceleration
Moreover user may have to buy a new Catalytic Converter which is Quite an Expensive Job.
