✦ Synopsis

This paper examines a theory of optimal control of chemical reactors governed by a system of partial differential equations linked by a second non-linear member and where the control variable is only present in the boundary conditions. An integral transformation procedure of the mathematical model associated with the use of Pontryagin's Principle permits a solution in terms of a classical differential problem.
