A method of analysis is presented to obtain the asymptotic form of the conservation equations used to describe non-isothermal chemical reaction in porous catalysts. The equations for a system involving the general simple chemical reaction contain several parameters, among which is a generalized form

A chemical reaction in a porous catalyst particle is considered. It is shown that in both the isothermal and non-isothermal cases, with either Dirichlet or third kind boundary conditions, two sequences of functions can be obtained, one of which converges to the maximal solution and the other to the
The selectivity of two first-order, parallel reactions, one reversible and one irreversible, can be altered substantially by the presence of an intraparticle diffusion resistance. At very large resistances, the relative selectivity approaches an asymptotic limit which depends on the kinetic, transpo
Using variational techniques, a computationally efficient procedure is developed for determining the sensitivity of the observed reaction rate in a porous catalyst with external transport resistances. Derivatives of the observed rate with respect to bulk fluid conditions or any other parameters in t
