Catalysts, methods of preparing catalyst, and methods for treating exhaust gas streams are described. In one or more embodiments, a catalyst system includes an upstream zone effective to catalyze the conversion of a mixture of NOx and NH3 to N2, and a downstream zone effective for the conversion of ammonia to N2 in the presence or absence of NOx. In an embodiment, a method for preparing a catalyst system includes: first coating one end of a substrate along at least 5% of its length with an undercoat washcoat layer containing a material composition effective to catalyze the removal of ammonia; second coating with an overcoat layer containing a material composition effective to catalyze the conversion of a mixture of NOx and NH3 to N2. A method for treating the exhaust gas stream is provided, which includes injecting ammonia or an ammonia precursor into an exhaust gas stream of a vehicle, passing the engine exhaust gas stream containing NOx and NH3 through the upstream zone of a catalyst system to remove NOx and then passing the exhaust gas stream through the downstream zone of the catalyst system to remove NH3, as well as other oxidizable species such as hydrocarbons and CO.
