The present invention pertains to a catalyst for use in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides comprising a monolithic substrate and a coating A, which comprises an oxidic metal carrier comprising an oxide of titanium and a catalytic metal oxide which comprises an oxide of vanadium wherein the mass ratio vanadium/titanium is 0.07 to 0.26.

Provided is a method for preparing a diol. In the method, a saccharide and hydrogen as raw materials are contacted with a catalyst in water to prepare the diol. The employed catalyst is a composite catalyst comprised of a main catalyst and a cocatalyst, wherein the main catalyst is a water-insoluble acid-resistant alloy; and the cocatalyst is a soluble tungstate and/or soluble tungsten compound. The method uses an acid-resistant, inexpensive and stable alloy needless of a support as a main catalyst, and can guarantee a high yield of the diol in the case where the production cost is relatively low.
