A monolithic porous ceramic filler

The present invention discloses a monolithic porous ceramic filler, which relates to a porous ceramic material prepared from industrial waste slag as raw material. The present invention is formed by combining multiple porous ceramic plates, wherein two adjacent porous ceramic plates are connected by supporting fixtures and extend along a first direction. The components formed by extending along the first direction are repeatedly arranged along a second direction, wherein a ventilation duct is formed between two adjacent components, and the ventilation duct is used for air and water to pass between the porous ceramic plates. The present invention abandons the model of previous patents in the same series that relied on plastic fixing frames or plastic belt racks for connection and fixation, and uses non-mechanical components to connect and fix the porous ceramic plates, making the filler a monolithic structure without plastic parts.
