摘要
We introduce the Pt surface kinetics from our previous work into a monolithic reactor model to describe overall preferential oxidation (PrOx) reactor performance. Model results are presented describing the effects of the amount and location of the 02 supply, the temperature, and the amount of catalyst. There is some emphasis upon the kinetically-controlled performance because it provides an important upper bound on reactor performance, we are able to derive analytical solutions for this case, and it clarifies several important aspects of full reactor model results.
