Audi A1 Sportback

Starting from 1975 most gasoline-powered vehicles have been equipped with catalytic converters (catalysts). This made it possible to solve the worsening environmental problems associated with pollution from vehicle exhausts. To date, catalytic converter standards have gone through several stages and the degree of purification has been increased year after year in accordance with Euro standards. As with any part of the car, catalytic converters have wear and tear, which is measured in the average mileage of the car and varies from 100 to 200 thousand kilometers of mileage. Wear depends on many factors, the main of which are the quality of fuel used as well as the car's operation. But it is not necessary to get rid of faulty equipment in a hurry. Today we will tell you what to do with the used catalytic converter Audi A1 Sportback and how to benefit from its proper disposal after the end of its service life.

The catalyst core is made in the form of a honeycomb grid coated with a layer of precious metals of the platinum group such as Platinum, Palladium, and Rhodium. These metals are the only value that you can get on catalytic recycle. These elements serve for redox reactions and catalyze them. That way toxic elements turn into harmless ones.
