Zusammenfassung:Process and catalyst for the catalytic conversion of nitrogen oxides (NOx), unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in internal combustion engine exhaust gases. The catalyst comprises essentially a composite of nickel and a minor proportion of iridium. This composite catalyst is found to be exceptionally resistant to poisoning by sulfur and lead compounds present in the exhaust gases.
