ABSTRACT:
The invention describes a catalytic process for destroying NOx from oxygen-containing combustion products wherein methane serves as a reductant. The process comprises contacting the NOx-containing combustion products with a desired amount of methane and oxygen in the presence of a metal-exchanged crystalline zeolite having a silicon to aluminum ratio of greater than or equal to about 2.5 under conditions sufficient to effect conversion to gaseous nitrogen, water and carbon oxides. The zeolites are exchanged with a cation selection from the group consisting of cobalt, nickel, iron, chromium, rhodium and manganese.
