Right.  Also HC to H2O + CO2; and NOx to N2 + O2 (if you have a "3-way" catalyst).

In order to achieve the reactions, it also needs free oxygen in the input.  That means your engine has to either run leaner than
normal (so not all the oxygen is consumed by combustion), or you need a air injection system to feed O2 to the converter.

My point being that it isn't just a bolt-on device.

Basically anything that reduces fuel consumption will also lower your "carbon footprint".
