In recent years heterogeneous catalytic reaction systems have been shown to produce a complex dynamic behavior. For example the heterogeneous catalytic oxidation of ethanol on palladium was found to exhibit multistability as well as relaxation oscillations (Jaeger et al., 1986, Ber. Bunsenges. phys.

✦ Synopsis
Experimental bifurcation diagrams for the heterogeneous catalytic oxidation of ethanol on a supported palladium catalyst are presented, depending on the oxygen or the ethanol content in the feed as control parameters. The identification of the bifurcations leads to a proposal for the formal construction of a mathematical

The rate controlling steps for a typical heterogeneous catalytic reaction have been established through an application of the initial rate approach. Experimental initial rate data were obtained for the catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide at varying conditions of temperature and total pressure. Fo
