Question

☺ ☺ How does the use of unlead petrol and catalytic converters in automobiles help in reducing pollution? ☺ ☺

Answer 1

Hey mate,

Catalyitic converters reduce pollution by converting carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide which is a less harmful gas.

A long time ago, probably around 1975 somebody determined that a vast majority of our air pollution was coming from our automobiles. That makes sense. If you have millions and millions of automobiles all over the world letting out harmful exhaust into the air it only stands to reason that cars are one of the major culprits when it comes to air pollution. There are actually three elements that are converted intocatalyitic converters reduce pollution by converting carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide which is a less harmful gasless harmful elements.

The three are hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. As the catalytic converter emits CO2 and H2O in the air. The gasses absorbe infra red radiation emitted by the earth and re-radiate the energy as heat back towards the earth. So the more CO2 and H2O emitted to the air the more heat there will be. So no, the catalytic converter does not help reduce the greenhouse effect.
