چکیده

Tihonov's Theorems for systems of first-order ordinary differential equations containing small parameters in the derivatives, which form the mathematical foundation of the steady-state approximation, are restated. A general procedure for simplifying chemical and enzyme reaction kinetics, based on the difference of characteristic time scales, Is presented. Korzuhin's Theorem, which makes it possible to approximate any kinetic system by a closed chemical system, is also reported. The notions and theorems are illustrated with examples of Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics and of a simple autocatalytic system. Another example illustrates how the differences in the rate constants of different elementary reactions may be exploited to simplify reaction kinetics by using Tihonov's Theorem. All necessary mathematical notions are explained in the appendices. The most simple formulation of Tihonov's 1st Theorem 'for beginners' is also given.

Preparation, Physiochemical and Kinetic Investigations of V2O5/SiO2 Catalyst for the Sulfuric Acid Production

V2O5/SiO2 catalyst was utilized to oxidize SO2 to SO3 species in the presence of oxygen mainly for producing sulfuric acid. For this catalyst, the active phase was a mixture of vanadium pentoxide and basic sulfate/pyrosulfate material. This active phase at the reaction temperature behaved as a liquid filling up the pores of the silica support. On the other hand, amounts of the SO3 and V5+ speci...
