Q2. Why do laboratory-scale reactors face this challenge?
Because they exhibit relatively high surface to volume ratios, laboratory-scale reactors designed to investigate homogeneous gas phase chemistry typically face the challenge of avoiding heterogeneous interference from the surface material.
Q3. What is the main conversion path of H2O2?
The self-reaction of HO2 to H2O2+O2 (R15) and subsequent decomposition of H2O2 to OH via (R16) is the main conversion path of H2O2.
Q4. Why are the compounds not included in the mechanism?
It is noted that compounds like N2O and NxHy are not included in the mechanism, since these are only formed from NOx at temperatures beyond those relevant to this study.
Q5. What is the energy required to overcome the second association transition state?
At low temperatures, energy is insufficient to overcome the second cis-HOCO decomposition barrier, allowing the first association transition state to control the overall reaction rate.
Q6. What is the role of high pressure in the oxidation of natural gas?
High pressure is also a driving force in the partial oxidation of natural gas to oxygenated hydrocarbons that play an important role as fuels as well as feedstock in a range of industrial processes.
Q7. What is the effect of NOx on the oxidation of CO/H2?
The presence of NOx influences the oxidation of CO/H2 through interactions with the radical pool as well as direct reactions between NOx and stable species; in particular H2 and O2.
Q8. What is the radial velocity gradient in laminar flow?
A useful measure of the radial velocity gradients in laminar flow is the longitudinal or axial dispersion [27,28] that characterizes the spreading, or overtaking, of fluid elements as a result of different local flow velocities and molecular diffusion.
Q9. What is the significant decrease in CO initiation temperature?
The most significant decrease takes place between 20 and 50 bar, which suggests a declining pressure dependency with increasing pressure.
Q10. What is the rate constant used in the present study?
The pressure-dependent rate constant proposed by Fulle et al. matches the recommendation by Tsang and Herron at low pressures and/or high temperatures, but exceeds it by more than a factor of 4 at 100 bar and temperatures relevant to this study.
Q11. What is the initiation temperature of CO at the pressure?
The results reveal a decreasing CO initiation temperature from about 800 to 700 K when the pressure increases from 20 to 100 bar.
Q12. What are the main reasons why flow reactors are missing?
flow reactor results at very high pressures are still missing despite the relevance to a number of important applications including engines and gas turbines.
