Abstract:The influence of intraparticle mass diffusion on the overall and relative rates of the parallel reactions AB and AC is examined for the case of an isothermal catalyst particle with no external concentration or temperature gradients. Calculations for three pairs of reaction orders: (0,1), (0,2) and (1,2), show that internal concentration gradients can cause the yield of the product formed in the higher-order reaction to decrease by as much as 80 percent. Extension of the analysis to other reaction orders is discussed. Criteria for close approach to various asymptotic limits are presented, together with an asymptotic expression which allows the maximum effect of pore diffusion on selectivity to be estimated for any pair of reaction orders.
