Structured metallic supports are currently found in catalytic converters for vehicles and similar, with a trend being towards the use of these in packed bed reactors to replace the pelleted catalyst structure [1].Whilst the metal support offers exceptional heat transfer, the use of the system is currently limited due to surface adhesion issues.However, optimization of the wash-coat approach presents a possible solution to the issue, ensuring greater surface adhesion through the use of a platelet substructure formed by thermally oxidising FeCralloy rods [2-4].
