β¦ Synopsis
We discuss statistical modeling of fluid-solid reaction processes in porous media.
We show that ideas from modern statistical bhysics of diiordered media, such as the concepts of percolation theory, aggregation processes, dynamic scaling and universality and random walk representation of diffusion processes are potent tools for studvinq of such processes in porous media.
As exampl&,we briefly describe how such ideas and concepts can be used fruitfully to model non-catalytic gas-solid reactions processes, and the phenomenon of catalyst deactivation with pore plugging.
The application of our method to other problems of interest is also discussed.
