Cars are parked on the roadside Three-way catalysis is gone [Petrochemical]

Recently, people often say that cars are parked on the roadside, and the three-way catalysis is stolen. I'm ignorant, I don't know what is [what] where is the installation? Is it very expensive? We don’t know how to ask “Du Niang”, so search online.

[Three-way Catalysis]: It is the abbreviation of "Three-way Catalytic Converter". three-way catalyst is an important external purification device installed in car exhaust system . It has rare metals and heavy metal powders. It relies on them to absorb car exhaust, which can convert harmful gases such as CO, HC and NOx discharged from car exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide , water and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction.

[Catalytic Converter] is a device to reduce automobile emission pollution. It can convert three pollutants in the automobile exhaust - carbon monoxide , carbon hydrocarbon compounds and nitrogen oxide compounds into non-toxic substances. The device is installed in the exhaust system of the car. Its function is to reduce the exhaust pollutants emitted by the engine and turn the three harmful gases into harmless gases, so that the exhaust gas of the car can be purified. The rare metals and precious metal powders in the [Three-way Catalyst] are the most valuable parts. It is these metals used as catalysts for reaction with exhaust gas in the converter and become the target of theft.

Because their value exceeds the value of gold, various precious metals were stolen from three-yuan catalytic converters sold to scrap metal dealers and can be sold for a considerable amount of money. Replace one with a value of about 7,000-10,000. After being stolen, it has little impact on the normal use of the car. There is no three-way catalysis. When the car is driving, it will discharge toxic and harmful gases into the air, and the exhaust gas does not meet the standards, affecting the safety of the road environment.

Many catalytic converters are stolen, and people cannot find them at the first time, because even after being stolen, the car can drive normally until the driving computer reports a fault, and sometimes there are no fault prompts. Many car owners think it is a false alarm, so it is difficult to find it back. Most car owners do not know when and where it was stolen.

Nowhere seems to be safe for this type of theft, what should I do?

Suggestions:

1. Park the car in the garage and has a monitoring area;

2. The vehicle does not spend the night outside for a long time;

3. Install an alarm on the car, and the alarm will be automatically called when the body of the car vibrates.
