The present disclosure provides a method of manufacturing a composite sandwich panel having a core formed of a plurality of cells extending vertically between a first skin and a second skin. The method includes creating at least one first strip and a second strip from a temporary material, each strip having at least one cavity having a succession of aligned half-cells, lining the cavity of the first strip with a fibrous ply, assembling the first strip and the second strip by interlocking the cavity of the first strip with the cavity of the second strip and trapping the fibrous ply therebetween, and trimming excess temporary material of the entirety of the strips formed during the preceding assembly step so as to form a new cavity which forms a succession of aligned half-cells.

A parallel passage fluid contactor structure for chemical reaction processes has one or more segments, where each segment has a plurality of substantially parallel fluid flow passages oriented in an axial direction; cell walls between each adjacent fluid flow passages and each cell wall has at least two opposite cell wall surfaces. The structure also includes at least one active compound in the cell walls and multiple axially continuous conductive filaments either embedded within the cell walls or situated between the cell wall surfaces. The conductive filaments are at least one of thermally and electrically conductive, are oriented in axially, and are in direct contact with the active compound, and are operable to transfer thermal energy between the active material and the conductive filaments. Heating of the conductive filaments may be used to transfer heat to the active material in the cell walls. Methods of manufacturing the structure are discussed.

To provide a treatment device equipped with a catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure, the device being for use in, for example, an exhaust gas purification treatment, hydrogen production by ammonia decomposition or the like, and a method for producing the same. The catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure is produced by forming the inorganic binder-containing functional catalyst-supporting corrugated glass paper without removing an organic binder originally contained in the glass paper and by using the corrugated glass paper in combination with the inorganic binder-containing functional catalyst-supporting flat glass paper. In the treatment device equipped with a catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure, a corrugated glass paper having an inorganic binder-containing functional catalyst supported thereon and a flat glass paper having the same inorganic binder-containing functional catalyst supported thereon are alternately stacked to form the catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure, and this catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure is packed in a casing.
