What else can I help you with?
How is carbon monoxide and nitrogen are removed in a catalytic converter?
They are not removed. They are converted from CO and NOx to CO2 and N2.
What is the purpose of a catalytic converter?
To lower the amount of harmful emissions in the exhaust. It converts HC, CO and NOx into H20, CO2, and N2.
What is catalytic converter made of?
catalytic converters are made of several rare metals, Platinum, Palladium, and Rhodium called catalysts because they create a chemical change to your exhaust gas without going through a chemical change themselves to lower emissions. The Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide, Oxygen, Hydro Carbons, and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOX) go through the catalytic converter and change NOx is changed to Oxygen, Hydro Carbons to H2O and Carbon Monoxide to Carbon Dioxide. Perfect catalyst change and out the tail pipe would be CO, CO2, O2, HC, and NOx --> CO2, H2O, O2
What gases come out of a catalytic converter?
small amounts of Carbonmonooxide(CO), but mostly Carbondioxide (CO2 (with 2 as an index)) water, these are the most common but i think there are also some involving Nitrogen.
What emissions gases is converter with in the catalytic converter?
HC hydrocarbons CO carbon monoxide NOx oxides of nitrogen
What other substances besides CO do gasoline engines without catalytic converter emit?
Since the combustion of a fuel is taking place, water must also be a product.
What is a balanced chemical equation for how a catalytic converter works?
In a catalytic converter, carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC) react with oxygen (O2) to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). This process is shown by the balanced chemical equation: 2CO + 2HC + O2 -> 2CO2 + H2O
Why you are using both EGR and catalytic converter?
An EGR valve reduces oxides of nitrogen. Cat converter reduces high HC and CO
What gases are removed by a catalytic converter?
The catalytic converters "burn" unused hydrocarbons, including raw and partially burned gasoline, and CAN burn small amounts of engine oil, providing that the engine isn't TOO messed up. But engine oil often has additives that can eventually destroy the catalytic converter. co and no is removed via Catalytic Converter
What do catalysts in the catalytic converters accomplish?
catalysts in the catalytic converters speed the change of co into co2 and the change of unburned hydrocarbons into co2 and h2o c: thats thee answerr maa cutesss ;DD hmuu if u need help c;
What is the CO light on the 1995 Ford Taurus digital display mean?
The CO stands for Carbon Monoxide. You may need a new catalytic converter.
Do cars in China require a catalytic converter?
China adopted Euro 4 emissions standards in 2010, Europe in 2005, so they aren't that far behind. You cannot come close to Euro 4 without a catalytic converter. The max CO level for a Euro 4 car is about 0.5 I think and from memory a car without a catalytic converter (pre 1992 in the UK) is allowed upto 3.0 CO.
