There has been a lot of technology in the automotive industry that has come and gone, faded into history and really forgotten by the next generation. Remember eight track players or CD players for that matter, digital speedometers, power antennas, ashtrays, and cigarette lighters? Still, some things introduced decades ago are still found on every vehicle, and despite their long, healthy history, catalytic converters may still be the most misunderstood component on a car.
In this podcast episode, Doug Kaufman, editor of Shop Owner Magazine, interviews Clint Cooper, a strategic Account Executive at AP Emissions Technologies, about catalytic converters in the automotive industry. They discuss the misconceptions surrounding catalytic converters and how they work to reduce harmful exhaust emissions.
Cooper explains the changes in technology and the advancements made by AP Emissions in the coating process of catalytic converters, which allows for more efficient use of precious metals and lower costs. They also touch on the issue of catalytic converter theft and the impact of electric vehicles on the future of catalytic converters.
Overall, they conclude that catalytic converters will continue to be an essential component in vehicles for many years to come.
