Selective catalytic reduction of NO x by ammonia (NH 3 -SCR) was the most efficient and economic technology for De-NO x applications. Therefore, a series of MnO x /vermiculite (VMT) and MnO x -Fe 2 O 3 /VMT catalysts were prepared by an impregnation method for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NO x ). The MnO x -Fe 2 O 3 /VMT catalysts provided an excellent NO conversion of 96.5% at 200 • C with a gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 30,000 h −1 and an NO concentration of 500 ppm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results indicated that the Mn and Fe oxides of the MnO x -Fe 2 O 3 /VMT catalyst were mainly composed of MnO 2 and Fe 2 O 3 . However, the MnO 2 and Fe 2 O 3 components were well dispersed because no discernible MnO 2 and Fe 2 O 3 phases were observed in X-ray powder diffraction spectra. Corresponding MnO x -Fe 2 O 3 /VMT monolithic honeycomb catalysts (MHCs) were prepared by an extrusion method, and the MHCs achieved excellent SCR activity at low temperature, with an NO conversion greater than 98.6% at 150 • C and a GHSV of 4000 h −1 . In particular, the MnO x -Fe 2 O 3 /VMT MHCs provided a good SCR activity at room temperature (20 • C), with an NO conversion of 62.2% (GHSV = 1000 h −1 ). In addition, the NO reduction performance of the MnO x -Fe 2 O 3 /VMT MHCs also demonstrated an excellent SO 2 resistance.
