Exhaust emissions of much concern are Hydrocarbon (HC), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitrogen Oxide(NOx) from the automotive vehicles. Catalytic converter oxidizes harmful CO and HC emission to CO2 and H2O in theexhaust system and thus the emission is controlled. Reduction of toxic substances emission from combustion engines canbe achieved in automotive exhaust after treatment process is applied based on oxidation and reduction processes whichare takes place in catalytic converter. This paper deals with various types of materials of low cost which can be used ina catalytic convertor as well as detailed study of the exhaust emissions coming out of the catalytic convertor as well as itsperformance analysis.
