US Patent RE49743 Catalyst for oxidising ammonia

A catalyst for oxidising ammonia comprises a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst and a composite heterogeneous extruded honeycomb having longitudinally extending parallel channels, which channels being defined in part by channel walls having a total longitudinal length, wherein the channel walls comprise a pore structure including a periodic arrangement of porous cells embedded in an inorganic matrix component, at least some of which porous cells are defined at least in part by an active interface layer of a catalytically active material comprising a precious metal supported on particles of a support material.
