Abstract

Abstract A catalyst for removal of nitrogen oxides which shows extremely good catalytic activity and is excellent in durability and is low in the activity of oxidizing SO 2 into SO 3 be prepared at a low cost by impregnating a titanium oxide carrier with a vanadium sulfate, a vanadyl sulfate or a mixture thereof and then reacting a mixed gas consisting of 0.05 to 100% by mole of ammonia and 99.95 to 0% by mole of an inert gas which is inert to both ammonia and vanadium and vanadyl sulfates with the impregnated carrier while the reaction mixture is maintained at a temperature of 300° to 520° C., and preferably 370° to 450° C., or by shaping a mixture of titanium oxide and a vanadium sulfate, a vanadyl sulfate or a mixture thereof into a desired shape and then reacting a mixed gas consisting of 0.05 to 100% by mole of ammonia and 99.95 to 0% by mole of an inert gas which is inert to both ammonia and vanadium and vanadyl sulfates with the shaped mixture while the reaction mixture is maintained at a temperature of 300° to 520° C., and preferably 370° to 450° C.
