The Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 catalysts were prepared by an impregnation method. A comparison of the catalytic activity for the reduction of NO x with ammonia over Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5, Fe‐ZSM‐5 and Mo/ZSM‐5 catalysts was carried out. Also, the effects of the conditions used for calcination as well as of the Fe/Mo ratio on the catalytic performance of Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 catalysts were studied. It was found that Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 is more active than Fe‐ZSM‐5 and Mo/ZSM‐5 separately. Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 exhibited the best performance for SCR reaction with a Fe/Mo ratio of 1.5 and yielded the highest NO x conversion of 96 % at a temperature of 430 °C. The results also showed that the performance of Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 is sensitive to the conditions used during calcination. The bulk phase and surface composition of the Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 catalysts were determined by XRD, BET, and XPS techniques, respectively. The results revealed that the surface Mo percentage is the largest when the Fe/Mo ratio is 1.5, which may be related to its higher activity for catalytic reduction of NO x . XRD results indicate that the best catalytic performance of the Fe/Mo = 1.5 sample results from a strong interaction among Fe, Mo and HZSM‐5. In addition, it can be tentatively presumed that the surface nitrous species from the calcinations play an important role in SCR of NO x over Fe‐Mo/ZSM‐5 catalysts.
