DEVICES FOR REDUCING EMISSIONS (Multijet engine)
Oxidising catalytic converter
This device converts the polluting substances in the exhaust gas (carbon monoxide, unburnt hydrocarbons and partic-
ulates) into harmless substances, thus reducing the smokiness and smell associated with diesel engine exhaust fumes.
The catalytic converter consists of a stainless steel case containing a honeycomb ceramic core in which there is the pre-
cious metal that carries out the catalysing action.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (E.G.R.) system
This system recirculates or reuses part of the exhaust gas in a proportion which varies according to engine operating
conditions.
When necessary, it is used for the control of nitrogen oxide emissions.
