METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF MONOLITHIC CARBONACEOUS OR CERAMIC SYSTEMS

The procedure for the fabrication of monolithic systems is characterized in that it uses the Selective Laser Sintering technique and a phenolic resin which comprises: i) preparing a homogeneous mixture of the starting material and the sintering agent; ii) sintering said mixtures until forming a part or "green body"; iii) cleaning said part and performing a curing treatment; iv) performing a pyrolysis treatment of said cured green body until obtaining a brown body, and v) activating said brown body to obtain the ceramic or carbonaceous monolith. The monolithic systems obtained with the invention are especially useful as catalyst support, in adsorbent systems for the elimination of contaminants or odours in gas or liquid phase or as particle filters or distributors-diffusers of fluids (gases or liquids).
