The present disclosure features a high metal cation content zeolite-based binary catalyst (e.g., a high copper and/or iron content zeolite-based binary catalyst, where the zeolite can be a chabazite) for NO.sub.x reduction, having relatively low N.sub.2O make, and having low corresponding metal oxide content; where the metal in the metal oxide corresponds to the metal of the metal cation. The present disclosure also describes the synthesis of the zeolite-based binary catalyst having high metal cation content.

A method of producing a hierarchical zeolite composite catalyst is provided. The method includes dissolving, in an alkaline solution and in the presence of a surfactant, a catalyst precursor comprising mesoporous zeolite to yield a dissolved zeolite solution, where the mesoporous zeolite comprises large pore ZSM-12 and medium pore ZSM-5. The method also includes condensing the dissolved zeolite solution to yield a solid zeolite composite from the dissolved zeolite solution and heating the solid zeolite composite to remove the surfactant. The method further includes impregnating the solid zeolite composite with one or more active metals selected from the group consisting of platinum, rhenium, rhodium, molybdenum, nickel, tungsten, chromium, ruthenium, gold, and combinations thereof to yield impregnated solid zeolite composite and calcining the impregnated solid zeolite composite to produce the hierarchical zeolite composite catalyst. The hierarchical zeolite composite catalyst has a mesostructure comprising at least one disordered mesophase and at least one ordered mesophase.
