Kinetic study and modeling of the hetero-homogeneous pyrolysis and oxidation of isobutane around 800 K. Part II. Pyrolysis in pyrex reactors packed with platinum foils or PbO-treated pyrex rods

Abstract: Isobutane pyrolysis has been studied at initial pressures and 20-200 torr in a packed reactor treated with PbO and in a reactor packed with platinum foils. 773-793 K, These packings strongly inhibit product formation and this effect is explained by the occurrence of the heterogeneous termination step: walls H· 9 9 : product (w)at the reactor walls. The reaction has been modeled in the temperature and pressure range on the basis of a kinetic scheme which has been proposed for the homogeneous reaction and step (… Show more

“…Although the diffusivity of HO 2 and RO 2 radicals is less than that of the smaller species (H atoms and OH radicals), this is offset by their more significant concentration, which gives their wall reactions greater importance. The experimentally determined rate constants of Zils et al for the wall reactions of HO 2 radicals and H atoms show similar orders of magnitude in their reactor operated between 2.6 and 26 kPa and 773 and 793 K, so mass transfer and concentration in the gas phase are the greatest factors controlling the rate of wall loss of these species.…”
