Catalytic Converter: Description and Operation

CATALYTIC CONVERTER 

DESCRIPTION 

California emissions vehicles incorporate mini catalytic converters into the exhaust system. These catalytic converters are made of stainless steel
designed to operate at extremely high temperatures.

OPERATION 

The catalytic converter captures and burns any unburned fuel mixture exiting the combustion chambers during the exhaust stroke of the engine. This
process aids in reducing emissions output.
