Kinetic description of diffusion-limited reactions in random catalytic media

arXiv:cond-mat/9710099 · doi:10.1063/1.475476

Abstract

We study the kinetics of bimolecular, catalytically-activated reactions (CARs) in d-dimensions. The elementary reaction act between reactants takes place only when these meet in the vicinity of a catalytic site; such sites are assumed to be immobile and randomly distributed in space. For CARs we develop a kinetic formalism, based on Collins-Kimball-type ideas; within this formalism we obtain explicit expressions for the effective reaction rates and for the decay of the reactants' concentrations.
