A catalyst system for exhaust gas purification which comprises a first-stage base metal catalyst located upstream and a second-stage base metal catalyst located downstream, wherein the first-stage base metal catalyst comprises at least one oxide support selected from the group consisting of alumina, ceria, zirconia, yttria, and titania and Cu metal and/or a Cu oxide supported thereon, and in cases where the amount of NOx in the exhaust gas has become or exceeded an NOx criterion, the state of the exhaust gas is switched from slightly rich to rich. |
