Abstract

Abstract The oxidation catalyst of this application is prepared by grinding and heat treating the tuff consisting essentially of SiO2, Al2O3 and H2O, and containing a total of 1 to 10% by weight of an alkaline metal oxide and alkaline earth metal oxide and having the X-ray diffraction pattern shown in the Table I or Table II. This catalyst eliminates NO in a dry exhaust gas which contains at least a small amount of oxygen.
