Abstract

A support structure for securing a catalyst structure wherein a combustion reactor has a plurality of hollow, internally cooled, elongated support members which are secured to the combustion reactor and which abut the catalyst structure to limit the axial movement of the catalytic structure. The support structure is in fluid communication with a cooling medium which maintains the support structure at a temperature at which its strength properties are retained.
