Catalysts play a key role in meeting EPA standards by facilitating chemical reactions that reduce the emission of pollutants. For example, catalytic converters in automobiles convert toxic gases like carbon monoxide (CO), NOx, and hydrocarbons into less harmful substances like carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2). Similarly, industrial catalysts help in processes like flue gas desulfurization and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to remove SOx and NOx from exhaust gases.
