• a given example of this catalyst is zirconia, modified with tungstate, and iron.
• the method may be used for reducing emissions of nitrogen oxides from waste gases, including industrial exhaust gases and automobile exhaust gases.
• nitrogen oxides in waste gases may be reacted with ammonia before the waste gases are discharged to the atmosphere.

• the catalyst is coated on an inert filter substrate.
• the catalyst comprises an extruded solid body comprising: 10-90% by weight of at least one binder/matrix component; and 5-80% by weight optionally stabilised ceria, wherein the at least one metal: (i) is present throughout the extruded solid body; (ii) is located in a majority at a surface of the extruded solid body; (iii) is present throughout the extruded solid body and is also present in a higher concentration at a surface of the extruded solid body; (iv) is present throughout the extruded solid body and is also carried in one or more coating layer(s) on a surface of the extruded solid body; or (v) is present throughout the extruded solid body, is present in a higher concentration at a surface of the extruded solid body and is also carried in one or more coating layer(s) on the surface of the extruded solid body.
• An advantage of the present invention is that by removing catalytic components that are often used in catalytic coatings, the number of coatings can be reduced, e.g. from two layers to one layer; or a single layer can be removed altogether and catalytic metal can be supported on a surface of the extruded solid body as such. This has benefits in reducing backpressure in an exhaust system, increasing the efficiency of the engine. Furthermore, by providing the possibility of uncoated catalysts, the extruded solid body can be manufactured at higher cell density, increasing strength and decreasing the thickness of cell walls which can improve light off performance and increasing activity through mass transfer. Also it is possible to increase the volume of active components in an extruded solid body relative to a coating on an inert substrate monolith.
• catalysts disclosed in our WO 2009/001131 disclosed above can be coated at about 2.7 g in “3 , whereas the equivalent material can be extruded as a solid body at 12 g in "3 .
• This increased catalyst density has advantages for long term durability and catalyst performance, which is important for on-board diagnostics.
• On board diagnostics in the context of a motor vehicle is a generic term to describe the self diagnostic and reporting capability of the vehicle's systems provided by a network of sensors linked to a suitable electronic management system.
• OBD On board diagnostics
• Early examples of OBD systems would simply illuminate a malfunction indicator light if a problem were detected, but it provided no information on the nature of the problem.
• More modern OBD systems use a standardised digital connection port and are capable of providing information on standardised diagnostic trouble codes and a selection of real-time data, which enable rapid problem identification and resolution of a vehicle's systems.
• the OBD limits for Euro 4 98/69/EC for passenger diesel vehicles (category M vehicles as defined by 70/156/EEC) are: carbon monoxide (CO) - 3.2g/km; hydrocarbons (HC) - 0.4 g/km; nitrogen oxides (NO x ) - 1.2 g/km; and particulate matter (PM) 0.18 g/km.
• the Euro 4 limits are: CO - 3.2 g/km; HC - 0.4 g/km; NO x - 0.6 g/km; and PM - no limit.
• Extruded solid bodies according to the present invention generally comprise a unitary structure in the form of a honeycomb having uniform-sized and parallel channels extending from a first end to a second end thereof.
• Channels at a first, upstream end can be blocked e.g. with a suitable ceramic cement, and channels not blocked at the first, upstream end can also be blocked at a second, downstream end to form a so-called wall- flow filter.
• the arrangement of the blocked channels at the first, upstream end resembles a chequer board with a similar arrangement of blocked and open downstream channel ends.
• Channel walls defining the channels are porous.
• an external "skin" surrounds a plurality of the channels of the extruded solid body.
• the extruded solid body can be formed from any desired cross section, such as circular, square or oval. Individual channels in the plurality of channels can be square, triangular, hexagonal, circular etc.
• the honeycomb structure disclosed in EP 1739066 has a Thermal Shock Parameter (TSP) too low to be used in a single unitary extrudate, because the honeycomb structure comprises an assembly of individual honeycomb units cemented together.
• TSP Thermal Shock Parameter
• This, arrangement, also seen in commercially available silicon carbide honeycombs, is designed to avoid catastrophic catalyst substrate failure due to inter alia thermal shock as a result of a relatively high Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) of the extruded material.
• CTE Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
