Original Abstract

Heterogenous catalysis is a widely applied process in many chemical technologies as it can significantly accelerate and direct the reaction process.Numerical simulations of heterogenous catalytic reactions attract great interest as they can accelerate the design and optimisation of processes. Usually, atomistic modelling of catalysts is unsustainable for the modelling of large-scale processes as the length scales would range from nanometres to meters.It is then necessary to develop simpler descriptions, which could be used for macroscopic simulation while still being accurate. This article describes a model of a reaction process on a catalyst particle focusing on the interaction between fluid flow and diffusion of species.
