Which outcome occurs when liquid fuel floods a catalytic converter?

💡 Explanation

Rapid catalyst material degradation occurs because thermal runaway through exothermic oxidation of the fuel leads to overheating and structural damage in the converter via the washcoat delamination mechanism; therefore the substrate melts, rather than lowering emissions since complete combustion ceases.
