Did you ever wonder what it is that your VW Passat Catalytic Converter actually does in your car. Well, it converts the harmful compounds from your car's exhaust system into harmless compounds before they are released rand could pollute the air outside. It converts these pollutants that actually form from gas combustion (called carbon monoxide), as well as those that come from the unburned gasoline that remains (called hydrocarbons) and those that are formed when the heat of the motor forces nitrogen in the air so that it can combine with oxygen (called nitrogen oxides).

Car companies started to install parts like your VW Passat Catalytic Converter into their vehicles in order to help combat the threat of these serious pollutants because hydrocarbons are linked to smog, nitrogen oxides cause both smog and acid rain and any living creature that breathes in carbon monoxide could die. So they figured out a way to convert the hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide and water, change the carbon monoxide into the less dangerous carbon dioxide and separate the nitrogen oxides back into oxygen and nitrogen. All of these gases are already found in the air around us. This is what your VW Catalytic Converter does.
