What is claimed is: 1. A process for treating a cold-start engine exhaust gas stream containing hydrocarbons and other pollutants comprising flowing said engine exhaust gas stream over a molecular sieve bed which preferentially adsorbs the hydrocarbons over water to provide a first exhaust stream,

What is claimed is: 1. A process for treating a cold-start engine exhaust gas stream containing hydrocarbons and other pollutants comprising flowing said engine exhaust gas stream over a molecular sieve bed which preferentially adsorbs the hydrocarbons over water to provide a first exhaust stream, and flowing the first exhaust gas stream over a catalyst to convert any residual hydrocarbons and other pollutants contained in the first exhaust gas stream to innocuous products and provide a treated exhaust stream and discharging the treated exhaust stream into the atmosphere, the molecular sieve bed comprising a crystalline molecular sieve having STI topology and having a mole ratio of at least 15 of (1) an oxide of a first tetravalent element to (2) an oxide of a trivalent element, pentavalent element, second tetravalent element which is different from said first tetravalent element or mixture thereof. 2. The process of claim 1 wherein the molecular sieve has a mole ratio of at least 15 of (1) silicon oxide to (2) an oxide selected from aluminum oxide, gallium oxide, iron oxide, boron oxide, titanium oxide, indium oxide and mixtures thereof. 3. The process of claim 1 wherein the molecular sieve has, after calcination, the X-ray diffraction lines of Table II. 4. The process of claim 2 wherein the molecular sieve has, after calcination, the X-ray diffraction lines of Table II. 5. The process of claim 2 wherein the engine is an internal combustion engine. 6. The process of claim 5 wherein the internal combustion engine is an automobile engine. 7. The process of claim 2 wherein the engine is fueled by a hydrocarbonaceous fuel. 8. The process of claim 2 wherein the molecular sieve has deposited on it a metal selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, and mixtures thereof. 9. The process of claim 8 wherein the metal is platinum. 10. The process of claim 8 wherein the metal is palladium. 11. The process of claim 8 wherein the metal is a mixture of platinum and palladium.
