Abstract
The interest in using monolithic structures for chemical conversion and ads orption processes is increasing. A relatively new type of monolith is based on carbon. The combined favorable properties of carbon and monolithic stru ctures create a support with great potential in catalytic and adsorption pr ocesses. This review describes the current state of the art of carbon-based monolithic structures with respect to preparation, obtained support proper ties, and application in catalytic and adsorption processes, and it evaluat es upcoming application areas.
