Abstract
This invention effectively utilizes a solid type honeycomb-shaped NO.sub.x removal catalyst which has been used in a catalytic ammonia reduction process and hence reduced in NO.sub.x removal power, and thereby provides an inexpensive catalyst having NO.sub.x removal power equal to that of a fresh catalyst. The nitrogen oxide removal catalyst of this invention, which is useful in a process wherein ammonia is added to exhaust gas and nitrogen oxides present in the exhaust gas are catalytically reduced, has a two-layer structure composed of a lower layer comprising a spent solid type nitrogen oxide removal catalyst and an upper layer comprising a fresh TiO.sub.2 -WO.sub.3 -V.sub.2 O.sub.5 ternary or TiO.sub.2 -WO.sub.3 binary catalyst powder which has been applied to the lower layer so as to give a coating thickness of 100 to 250 .mu.m. Moreover, the catalyst power constituting the upper layer is a catalyst powder obtained by pulverizing a spent solid type nitrogen oxide removal catalyst.
