Abstract
Abstract A method for reducing NOx gas contained in an exhaust gas to harmless N2 gas with NH3 gas using an iron oxide catalyst, characterized in that said iron oxide catalyst comprises a substance consisting essentially of hematite crystals ( alpha -Fe2O3), and the peak intensity of X-rays diffracted on the (110) plane of the lattice of said crystal has a ratio of 0.6 to about 1.0 to that of X-rays diffracted on the (104) plane of said crystal lattice.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
108 words
In the method for reducing NO x gas contained in an exhaust gas to N 2 gas wherein the exhaust gas is contacted with NH 3 gas and an iron oxide catalyst, the improvement wherein the catalyst consists essentially of a hematite iron ore modified from a goethite iron ore by preheating the goethite iron ore at a temperature of from 300° to 900° C., and having a ratio defined by the peak intensity of X-rays diffracted on the (110) plane of the lattice of the hematite crystals therein to that of X-rays diffracted on the (104) plane of said crystal lattice of from 0.6 to about 1.0.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
