Abstract

This article develops a modified version of the shrinking-core model accounting for the surface heterogeneity of solid particles. This model can be primarily used as a shortcut method for estimating the dependence of the kinetic rates on the concentration of fluid reactants and specifically the reaction order in the presence of a polydisperse solid mixture. This approach is tested numerically for model reactions involving polydisperse systems and is applied to the dissolution of MnO 2 in sulphuric acid solutions containing glucose as the reductant agent.
