MULTIPLE LAYER MONOLITHIC STRUCTURE AND USE THEREOF

摘要

A multiple layer monolithic structure comprising at least a first layer of porous material having a relatively high number of pores per cm and a second layer of porous material having a relatively low number of pores per cm, a catalyst or catalyst precursor comprising the multiple layer monolithic structure, wherein at least the first layer of the monolithic structure has been provided with a catalytically active material or a precursor therefor, and a process for the catalytic conversion of a fluid substrate comprising contacting the substrate with the catalyst as defined, in particular a process for the catalytic partial oxidation of a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock.
