Abstract

Abstract A catalyst for purifying exhaust and waste gases, which consists essentially of (A) 30 to 99% by weight of at least one catalytic oxide selected from a binary oxide comprising titanium and silicon and a ternary oxide comprising Ti, Zr and Si, (B) 1 to 70% by weight of a catalytic oxide comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of V, W, Mo, U, Cu, Fe, Cr, Mn and Ce, and (C) 0 to 50% by weight of a catalytic oxide comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of Sn, Zn, Pb, Ti, Zr, Ni, Co, Nb, Ta, P, Br, Bi, Sb, alkali metals, and alkaline earth metals.
