CHAPTER-1 INTRODUTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION As we know, air pollution is big challenge for the world. Air pollution is not national problem. An under developed country like India control of air pollution is very necessary. Air pollution due to industrial waste, automobile & by nature. But among that air pollution due to automobile 70% of total air pollution. So now a day control of automobile pollution & its bad effect is very necessary. We have several ways for controlling automobile pollution, but most effective way is by using catalytic converter in the automobile.
1.2 CATALYTIC CONVERTER AS A POLLUTION CONTROLLER DEVICE: The catalytic converter does a great job at reducing the pollution, but it can still be improved substantially. One of its biggest shortcomings is that it only works at a fairly high temperature. When you start your car cold, the catalytic converter does almost nothing to reduce the pollution in your exhaust.
♦ What is catalytic converter? As the name suggests, it basically converts harmful gases into harmless gases, which are environment friendly, with the help of a catalyst.
Engine exhausts having harmful gases like CO, NOx & HC which are converted into harmless gases like CO2, N2 & H2O respectively with the use of catalytic converter.
1.3 HISTORY: In 1973, General Motors faced new air pollution regulations and
