Exptl. studies were conducted on a new type of structured catalytic carrier, manufactured using 3D printing. Its design was inspired by fish gills, which are natural structures with high transport properties and a large sp. surface area, characteristics desirable for a catalytic carrier. The Nusselt no. detd. for the new structure (GSC, Gill-like structured carrier) indicate intensive heat transfer, similar to a packed bed, and acceptable flow resistance.
