Abstract
A new technique for kinetic investigations in fixed bed reactors, wave front analysis, is introduced in this paper. Use is made of Riemann's integration method to solve the linearized hyperbolic equations representing the dynamics of a homogeneous reaction in a packed tubular reactor. It is shown how the analysis of the front of the faster disturbance, in this system the concentration step, can be used for kinetic investigations. Wave front analysis is generalized for non-linear systems through Picard's iteration technique.
