Advanced Catalyst Support Structures

Engineered lattice structures can be fabricated from inert materials to act as catalyst supports (good for high dollar catalysts). We can also develop monoliths made entirely of your catalyst. A highly-tortuous, engineered structure can greatly improve the efficiency of catalyst systems.

 

We have observed mass transfer increases of up to 300% in systems where an inert lattice structure was coated with a catalyst, and mass transfer can improve even further in systems which use a catalyst monolith.

Our lattice structures offer:

• Repeatable pore sizes
• Repeatable catalyst coverage
• Repeatable flow characteristics

• Overall Dimensions (height, length/width, diameter, etc)
• Gap Between Rods (a small gap is less than 0.1 mm, large gaps are several mm)
• Rod Size (small rods are less than 0.1 mm, large rods are several mm)
• Materials Selection
