A catalytic converter is an essential component of the exhaust system in a vehicle, including the Highlander Toyota Crown Reiz 2.5. It is responsible for reducing the harmful emissions that are produced during the combustion process of the engine.
The catalytic converter works by converting the toxic gases, such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides, into less harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and nitrogen. The process occurs through a series of chemical reactions within the converter, which are facilitated by the use of precious metals, such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium, as catalysts.
