Abstract
The invention relates to a method for treating a gas containing nitrogen oxides (NOx), in which an NOx-reduction reaction is carried out using a nitrogen-containing reducing agent, which invention is characterized in that the catalyst used for the reduction reaction is a catalytic system containing a composition comprising zirconium, cerium and niobium in the following percentages by weight, expressed in terms of the weight of oxide: 10-50% of cerium, 5-20% of niobium and the remainder consisting of zirconium.
