Abstract
A process is disclosed wherein NO contained in a gas is reduced by means of NH.sub.3 as a reducing agent. A mixture of the NO-containing gas and NH.sub.3 is reacted at 290.degree. to 450.degree. C. in the presence of a catalyst, which comprises a support of SiO.sub.2 and contains 5 to 15% by weight manganese sulfate and iron sulfate. The mole ratio of manganese sulfate and iron sulfate, which is calculated as FeSO.sub.4, is between 1:10 and 10:1. The support has a pore volume of 0.6 to 1.6 ml/g and an average pore diameter of 10 to 100 nm.
