ElvaX ProSpector for Car Catalyst Analysis - Brochure

Introduction

Catalytic converters in cars are used for reduction of hazardous emissions, such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HxCy) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). These harmful substances are converted into carbon dioxide (CO2), water and nitrogen by some chemical reactions, which are accelerated by three platinum group metals (PGM): platinum, palladium and rhodium.
