Abstract
The roles of interaction and mobility in determining surface rates and hence reactor performance, as reflected in the space time values required for achieving a desired conversion or selectivity, are demonstrated. It is shown that localized adsorption models predict larger space times in comparison to the mobile models. Further, repulsive forces lead to higher space times in comparison to attractive forces, and the divergence between models is most marked for localized adsorption.Keywords
