In this work we study a model of a catalytic reaction among three monomers in order to understand the kinetics of the selective catalytic reduction of NO by ammonia (4NO + 4NH3 + O2 → 4N2 + 6H2O). Our model takes into account the formation of the intermediate species in the global scheme of the reaction. Using the Monte Carlo method we simulated the model on a square lattice and determined its phase diagram.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
