Abstract: In this paper a pseudohomogeneous model of fixed bed catalytic reactor with axial dispersion is described. The conception of this model is based on the assumption that the catalyst is deactivated by irreversible chemisorption of catalyst poison. An algorithm for solution of the system of model equations as well as a comparison of numerical results with experimental ones and with the model of well-mixed regions in series is also presented.
