“…When the rate of reaction is fairly rapid (4 > 5), the concentration of A drops very sharply in the reaction zone which may now be further divided into two zones: (b-1) reaction zone, and (b-2) core of completely unreacted R. This then leads to the three zone model proposed by Howen and Cheng (1969), Tudose (1970) and Mantri et al (1976). These models are also referred to as finite reaction zone mbdels.…”

This paper presents a critical review of the developments in the mathematical modeling of gas-solid noncatalytic reactions with particular emphasis on recent trends in the subject. A number of models proposed for analyzing this class of reactions have been reviewed with a fairly detailed discussion of the methods of incorporating structural changes which occur in the solid with the progress of reaction. The present status on the modeling of various types of complex gas-solid reactions is reviewed. Also the paper points out a number of areas in which future research may be needed. The review concludes with a critical discussion on the type of experimental data necessary for model verification and some comments on the choice of model for a given system. SCOPENoncatalytic gassolid reactions are encountered in a variety of chemical process industries. Tbe major applications are found in the fields of extractive metallurgy, control of gaseous pollutants, coal gasification processes, combustion of solid fuels, catalyst manufacture, etc. Tbe mathematical modeling of these systems is important in order to interpret laboratory data on these systems and in design and scaleup. The problem is complex since in addition to the interplay of heat and mass transfer, other considerations are necessary to account for the transient nature of the problem and the effects of changes in solid properties with the course of reaction. Some of the major developments in this area have been reviewed in a book by Szekely et .I. (1976) and in an edited monograph by Sohn and Wadsworth (1979) Since then considerable advances have taken place, and it is felt that there is a need for a comprehensive and critical review of the major recent developments in this area, and this review is written with this objective. Such a review also helps in evaluating some of the trends in research in this field. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCEIn this review the various models which are commonly used to describe gas-solid noncatalytic reactions have been discussed.The three common models which have been in use are the sharp interface model, the volume reaction model, and the particlepellet model. These models have been recently modified to take into account the effects of structural changes due to chemical reaction and sintering. AIso new models which take into account the basic porous nature of the solid and the pore size distribution have been proposed. The review covers all these major developments. Further, in each case the model parameters and their physical significance have been clearly indicated.Another important area of research is in the field of complex gas-solid noncatalytic reactions. A classification of the important reactions belonging to this class has been presented and the major developments in tbe modeling of these have been pointed out. The review also covers special characteristics of gasification and decomposition reactions and reactions showing significant nucleation effects. The information on the stability of noncatalytic gas-solid reactions ...

“…The mechanism underlying the inflection may be explained in terms of pore plugging of the product layer by solid product (CaSO 3 or CaSO 4 ) [8]. Duo et al reported that this inflection point depends on the generation of the product layer [9][10][11]. Because the molar volume of CaSO 4 is 2.72 times larger than that of CaO, sulfation results in an increase in the size relative to the original CaO grains.…”

4DENOSO Corporation, Kariya city, Aichi Prefecture, Japan NO x emitted from diesel engines is one of the major air pollutants in most countries. To reduce NO x emission, NO x storage/reduction (NSR) catalysts have been developed for diesel systems. The catalyst for NSR is strongly poisoned with sulfur. This paper reports the synthesis of Na-doped CaCO 3 as a new material for SO 2 adsorption. Measurements of the desulfurization breakthrough characteristics using monolith washcoated Na-doped CaCO 3 were investigated at 450 • C. The Na-doped CaCO 3 absorbed ∼77.6-90.6 mg -SO 2 /g -material of SO 2 at 450 • C (where CaCO 3 is 8 mg -SO 2 /g -material ). Investigation of the source of the improved sulfur absorption capacity of the Na-doped CaCO 3 relative to the parent material via x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) analyses revealed that the new material forms a composite partially composed of Na 2 Ca(CO 3 ) 2 . The enhanced SO 2 absorption capacity derived from the formation of composite materials is demonstrated herein. SO 2 contained in the exhaust gas is absorbed at a lower temperature than with previously reported systems. In order to elucidate the SO 2 absorption mechanism of the composite materials, further studies and synthesis of materials with greater absorption capacity are required.

“…The second stage then comprises of a two-zone model -an outer product layer, and an inner reaction zone. A subsequent modification (Mantri et al, 1976) considers a three-zone model, in which the reaction zone does not extend to the center, so that the third zone comprises an inner unreacted core. When this core is absent the model reduces to the earlier two-zone one.…”
