    7) CONCLUSION
    INTRODUCTION

    • As we know air pollution is big challenge for the world

    • The air pollution due to automobile is 70% of total


    pollution of air pollution.

    • We have several way for controlling automobile pollution.

    • The most effective way is by using catalytic converter in


    automobile

    • In short catalytic converter are used to convert the


    harmful gas to harmless gas
    What is catalytic converter?

    • It convert harmful gas into harmless gas with the help of


    catalyst

    • It is pollution reducing unit

    • It placed between the exhaust manifold and the silencer


    in the vehicle
    CONSTRUCTION

    Basic component are:


    • Substrate
    • Catalyst
    • Mat
    • Can
    • Shields
    Working
    • When the exhaust gas come out of the engine it goes to
    the catalytic converter

    • The gas such as NOX , HC and CO are present in


    exhaust. All these gases are treated in catalytic
    converter producing harmless gas like CO2,H2O and N2
    which are safely released in the atmosphere with the
    help of catalyst

    • Catalyst is material which promotes chemical change


    without chemical reaction
    Type of catalytic converter :-

    1)Two way :- 2)Three way :-


    Two way catalytic converter :-
    • Three way catalytic converter:
    ADVANTAGES

    • Reducing amount of CO, HC and NOx, particulate


    emission.
    • it leads to pollution free environment.

    • Having long life.


    Disadvantages

    • Cost is high

    • Volume required is high

    • There is over temperature problem

    • Catalytic material is lost


    APPLICATIONS :-

    • Catalytic converters are used with internal combustion


    engines fueled by either petrol (gasoline) or diesel.

    • including lean-burn engines as well as kerosene heaters


    and stoves.

    • they are also used on electrical generator , forklifts,


    mining equipment, truck , busses,
    locomotives and motorcycles.

    • They are also used on some wood stoves to control


    emissions.
    CONCLUSION
    • The catalytic converter was successfully
    designed and fabricated.
    • The increase in inlet cone length reduces the
    backpressure and also reduces the recirculation
    zones.

    • Installation of the catalytic converter reduces the


    brake thermal efficiency and increase the brake
    specific fuel consumption, fuel flow rate.

    • At lower temperature the catalytic converter will


    be inactive. The heat release due to chemical
    reaction does not play a significant role.
