Multiscale modeling of monolithic sponges as catalyst carrier for the methanation of carbon dioxide

Solid sponges provide large surface areas, low pressure drops, and excellent heat transport properties and are thus promising monolithic catalyst carriers. Their potential compared to randomly packed beds at industrial scales, however, is largely unknown. To facilitate scale-up and future simulation...
