Catalyst for treating an exhaust gas, an exhaust system and a method

Abstract

A catalyst for treating an exhaust gas comprising SO2, NOx and elemental mercury in the presence of a nitrogenous reductant comprises a composition containing oxides of: (i) Molybdenum (Mo) and optionally Tungsten (W); and (ii) Vanadium (V); and (iii) Titanium (Ti); and (iv) Phosphorus (P), wherein, with respect to the total metal atoms in the composition, the composition comprises: (i) Mo in an amount of less than 2 at. %, and optionally up to 9 at. % W; (ii) from 2.5 to 12 at. % V; (iii) from 85 to 96 at. % Ti, and wherein the composition comprises (iv) P in an atomic ratio to the sum of atoms of Mo, W and V of from 1:2 to 3:2. The values expressed must total 100%.
