Abstract
Certain metal-exchanged SUZ-4 zeolites have been prepared that have catalytic activity for the reduction of NOx in the exhaust of a hydrocarbon or alcohol fueled engine operated under fuel lean conditions. Initially the SUZ-4 zeolite contains alkali metal cations such as Li+, Na+, K+ and/or Cs+. These alkali metal cation-containing zeolites are partially exchanged with at least one of copper (II), silver (I), iron (III) or cobalt (II) ions. The resulting partially exchanged SUZ-4 zeolites display such activity and are stable under extreme hydrothermal aging conditions.
