[Newsreader 2] Thieves targeting cars for their catalytic converters.

- [Newsreader 2] 盗贼瞄准汽车的催化转化器。

Well, because of the very unique chemistry that happens inside of a catalytic converter.

好吧，因为催化转化器内部发生了非常独特的化学反应。

Most cars produced since the 1980s are equipped with catalytic converters that reduce the emission of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.

在 1980 年代制的大部分汽车都配有触媒转化器，减少氧化碳和氮氧化的排放。

Which is using these small organic molecules to do catalytic reactions that we can use to make medicines or to make materials.

就是利用这些小的有机分子进行催化反应，我们可以用它来制或材料。

But in recent years, catalytic converters have become one of the most stolen items on cars.

但近年来，催化转化器已成为汽车上最容易被盗的品之。

Quantum computing can help here because it enables us to understand these catalytic reactions that could take otherwise a century.

量子计算在这里可以提供帮助， 因为它使我们能够理解这些可能个世纪才能完成的催化反应。

A catalytic converter is basically an extra little chamber along your car's exhaust pipe, EV owners, this doesn't apply to you.

催化转化器基本上是汽车排气管上的个额外的小室，EV 车主， 这不适用于您。

They put something called a catalytic converter in their cars to clean up the air after it had been combusted in the engine.

他们在汽车中放置了种叫做催化转化器的东西，以净化在发动机中燃烧后的空气。

So that's why this strange crime wave is taking over and why people are sawing catalytic converters off of your Prius.

所以这就是为什么这种奇怪的犯罪浪潮正在席卷而来，以及为什么人们正在从您的 Prius 上锯掉催化转化器。

Most modern cars are fitted with advanced catalytic converters that reduce the amount of harmful components present in the exhaust, in order to protect the outside atmosphere.

大多数现代汽车都配备了先进的催化转换器，可以减少废气中有害成分的数量，以保护外部大气。

Perhaps, too, the fact that she was new to their world acted as a sort of catalytic agent to precipitate out all their old reservations about one another.

也许，她对他们的世界是陌生的，这事实也起到了种催化剂的作用，促使他们消除了对彼此的所有旧有保留意见。

To fulfill your farm's stringent requirements, 9 RX employs a tried-and-true emissions-reduction technique that includes a diesel oxidation catalyst, a diesel particle filter, and a selective catalytic reduction system.

为了满足您农场的严格求，9 RX 采用了久经考验的减排技术，其中包括柴油氧化催化剂、柴油颗粒过滤器和选择性催化还原系统。

But when I talk to banks and investors, there's one particular form of government funding that they say would make a huge difference, and it's called blended or catalytic finance.

但当我与银行和投资者交谈时，他们说有种特殊形式的政府资助会产生巨大的影响，它被称为混合或催化融资。

And this kind of blended or catalytic finance has proven to be tremendously effective in areas like affordable housing, where a little bit of government money can go a long way.

这种混合或催化融资已被证明在经济适用房等领域非常有效， 在这些领域，少量政府资金可以发挥很大作用。

And I don't see us sort of worshipping the guy that invented the television tube the same way or the person that first engineered the catalytic converter or anything like that.

而且我不认为我们崇拜以同样方式发明电视管的人或首先设计催化转化器的人或类似的人。

At the moment, the lab was attempting to develop a catalytic reaction as a substitute for molecular construction so that large numbers of molecules would stack themselves into the right arrangement.

目前，该实验室正试图开发种催化反应来替代分子结构，以便大量分子能够自行堆叠成正确的排列。

No. What else happened? DDT was banned, the  catalytic converter was introduced, leaded gas was removed from the environment. All of this happened  in those five years, while we were still at war.

不，还有什么事发生？ DDT 被禁止， 催化转化器被引入，含铅气体被从环境中移除。 所有这切都发生在这五年里， 当时我们还在打仗。

Solar panels made this way are now in production, and Mr Elrod is already casting his eye over fuel cells, ultracapacitors (a novel way of storing electricity) and even catalytic converters as suitable candidates for manufacture by co-extrusion.

以这种方式制的太阳能板现已投入生产，Elrod也已把目光投向了燃料电池，超级电容（种储藏电量的新奇方式），甚至催化转化器都成了共挤压制的合适材料。

So the U.S. passed these huge, new environmental laws like the Clean Air Act, which led to one of the most monumental innovations ever in cleaning up the way that we drive: the catalytic converter.

因此，美国通过了这些庞大的新环境法，如《清洁空气法》，这导致了有史以来最具有里程碑意义的创新之，旨在净化我们的驾驶方式：催化转化器。
