Two-Dimensional Mathematical Model for Carbon Monoxide Oxidation Process on the Platinum Catalyst Surface

The two-dimensional mathematical model for carbon monoxide (СО) oxidation on the platinum (Pt) catalyst surface is investigated according to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (LH) mechanism. The effects of structural changes of the catalytic surface and the substrate temperature are taken into account. It is shown that when two-dimensionality and structural changes are accounted for, both the dynamics of oxidation process and the stability region change.
