Processing apparatus equipped with catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure, and method for manufacturing same

A method for manufacturing a processing apparatus equipped with a catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure, which is characterized by consisting of a step of baking a glass fiber paper to remove an organic binder component contained in the glass fiber paper by burning;

• a step of applying a functional catalyst-containing slurry on the glass fiber paper after removal of the organic binder component;
• a step of shaping the functional catalyst-containing slurry-applied glass fiber paper by a crimping die and a pressing jig to form a shaped, corrugated plate-like functional catalyst-containing slurry-applied glass fiber paper;
• a step of drying the shaped, corrugated plate-like functional catalyst-containing slurry-applied glass fiber paper and peeling it off from the die;
• meanwhile, a step of drying a flat plate-like functional catalyst slurry-applied glass fiber paper having not been shaped in a corrugated plate-like form;
• a step of calcinating the shaped, corrugated plate-like functional catalyst-containing slurry-applied glass fiber paper and the flat plate-like functional catalyst slurry-applied glass fiber paper to form a functional catalyst-supporting, flat plate-like glass fiber paper and a functional catalyst-supporting, corrugated plate-like glass fiber paper;
• and a step of alternately laminating the functional catalyst-supporting, flat plate-like glass fiber paper after calcination and the functional catalyst-supporting, corrugated plate-like glass fiber paper after calcination without being bonded to each other, to form a catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure and a step of packing this catalyst-supporting honeycomb structure in a casing.
