    Catalytic converters use metallic materials with atomic defects on their surfaces to reduce automobile emissions. A catalytic converter is located in the exhaust system where pollutant molecules attach to surface defects of metallic materials inside. While attached, the molecules undergo chemical reactions that convert them into non-polluting or less-polluting substances.
