Selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxide with ammonia in the presence of excessive oxygen was investigated on transition metal oxides' catalysts (V, Cr, Mn, Fe) supported on HZSM-5. Meanwhile, catalyst V/ZSM-5 and Fe/ZSM-5 have shown the most activity and the conversion percentage of nitrogen oxides to nitrogen is more than 97% at temperatures above 300 °C, in these two catalysts. All synthesized catalysts possessed a good stability. Analytical characterization of synthesized catalysts were conducted by different methods of temperature programmed reduction, absorption and desorption of nitrogen, temperature programmed desorption of ammonia, X-ray diffraction and diffuse reflectance UV-vis spectroscopy. The less the apparent activation energy is, the more their activity will be. Thus, the Cr/ZSM-5 and V/ZSM-5 catalysts showed the lowest and highest performance in this process, respectively.
