Understanding the nonlinear reactive transport model in porous catalysts

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This paper discusses the steady-state nonlinear reaction-diffusion processes in porous catalysts. This model is based on a nonlinear second-order differential equation that includes a nonlinear term associated with the Michaelis-Menten and non-Michaelis-Menten kinetics of the reaction. The nonlinear equations can be approximately solved using the Taylors series, modified Taylors series and Akabri-Ganji technique to obtain the concentration of dissolved species. The influence of the half-saturation parameter and the characteristic reaction rate on concentration is explored. Sensitivity analysis of parameters is discussed. Our analytical findings were compared with numerical solutions.
