Abstract

The applications of a Reaction-Diffusion boundary value problems are found in science, biochemical applications, and chemical applications. The Ananthaswamy-Sivasankari method (ASM) is employed to solve the considered specific models like non-linear reaction-diffusion model in porous catalysts, spherical catalysts pellet, and catalytic reaction-diffusion process in a catalyst slab. An accurate semi-analytical expression for the concentrations and effectiveness factors are given in the explicit form. Graphical representations are used to display the impacts of several parameters, including the Thiele modulus, characteristic reaction rate, concentration of half-saturation, reaction order and dimensionless constant in Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetics. The impact of numerous parameters namely the Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetics and Thiele modulus on effectiveness factors are displayed graphically. Our semi-analytical findings shows good match in all parameters when compared to numerical simulation using MATLAB. Many non-linear problems in chemical science especially, the Reaction-Diffusion equations, Michaelis-Menten kinetic equation, can be resolved with the aid of the new approximate analytical technique, ASM.
