catalytic converter

In Turkish, "katalitik konvertör" or "katalizör". Often simply called a "catalyst", this is a stainless steel canister that is part of a vehicle's exhaust system and contains a thin layer of catalytic material spread over a large area of inert supports.

It induces chemical reactions that convert an engine's exhaust emissions into less harmful products prior to entering the environment.
