Hyundai Catalytic Converter
Hyundai is one of those car manufacturers who simply are committed in ensuring that their clean and fuel efficient powertrains demonstrate their commitment to the environment. It is no wonder they keep coming up with innovations that can help with a cleaner air.
Catalytic converters are emission control devices that regulate the release of harmful by-products of combustion like hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide. The catalytic converter contains the reduction and oxidation catalyst where the toxic gases are converted to less harmful water, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen. The oxygen sensor tells how much oxygen is in the exhaust so the computer can adjust the air-to-fuel ratio and make sure there is enough oxygen in the exhaust to allow oxidation catalyst to burn unburned hydrocarbons and CO. Platinum and rhodium are used as a reduction catalyst, while platinum and palladium are used as an oxidization catalyst.
The catalytic converter expects on receiving the proper mix of exhaust gases at the proper temperature. Any additives or malfunctions that change the mixture or the temperature cause the decrease in effectiveness and life of the catalytic converter. It’s hard to tell if your Hyundai Catalytic Converter is clogged unless a qualified person inspects it. Sometimes you can tell because you don’t go any faster no matter how much you push the gas pedal. There is a noticeable drop in gas mileage with a clogged converter.
