A method for the removal of nitrous oxide from off gas by direct decomposition or by selective catalytic reduction in presence of a reducing agent, comprising the steps of contacting the gas directly or together with the reducing agent or a precursor thereof with a catalyst comprising an Fe-AEI zeolite material essentially free of alkali metal ions (Alk) and having the following molar compositions:
SiO.sub.2: oAl.sub.2O.sub.3: pFe: qAlk wherein o is in the range from 0.001 to 0.2; wherein p is in the range from 0.001 to 0.2; wherein Alk is one or more of alkali ions and wherein q is less than 0.02.

A composite catalyst containing heteroatom-doped zeolite for preparing light olefin using direct conversion of syngas formed by compounding component I and component II in a mechanical mixing mode. The active ingredient of component I is a metal oxide, and the component II is a heteroatom-doped zeolite. The zeolite topology is CHA or AEI, and the skeleton atoms include Al—P—O or Si—Al—P—O; the heteroatoms is at least one of divalent metal Mg, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Sr, Zr, Mo, Cd, Ba and Ce, trivalent metal Ti and Ga, and tetravalent metal Ge. A weight ratio of the active ingredient in the component I to the component II is 0.1-20. The reaction process has high light olefin selectivity; the sum selectivity of the light olefin including ethylene, propylene and butylene can reach 50-90%, while the selectivity of a methane side product is less than 7%.

The present disclosure provides molecular sieves with intergrown phases of AEI and CHA topologies and a catalyst thereof. A preparation method for the molecular sieves include the following steps: mixing a hydroxyphosphono organic alkali R with an aluminum source and a silicon source to obtain a sol-gel precursor, putting the sol-gel precursor into a closed hydrothermal synthesis reactor for reaction, filtering the reaction solution, washing, drying, and calcination to obtain the molecular sieves with intergrown phases of AEI and CHA topologies.
