Where is the motorcycle three-way catalytic converter located?
1 Answers
Motorcycle three-way catalytic converters are located inside the exhaust pipe. Here's some information about three-way catalytic converters: 1. Installation regulations: According to the regulations of the Ministry of Environmental Protection of the People's Republic of China, not every motorcycle is equipped with one. 2. Three-way catalytic converter: It is the most important external purification device installed in the exhaust system, which can convert harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx in the exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions. When high-temperature exhaust passes through the purification device, the purifying agent in the three-way catalytic converter enhances the activity of CO, HC, and NOx, promoting certain oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. CO is oxidized into colorless, non-toxic carbon dioxide gas at high temperatures; HC compounds are oxidized into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide; NOx is reduced into nitrogen and oxygen. These three harmful gases are transformed into harmless gases, thereby purifying the vehicle's exhaust emissions.
