Mathematical modeling of conversion CO to CO2 in batch mode CO2 laser system

الملخص EN

The oxidation of carbon monoxide CO over supported noble metal catalyst is an important part of the catalytic control in sealed-off TEA CO2 laser system.

In this model, the activities of supported noble metal catalysts (Pt / Al2O3 and Pd / Al2O3) separately in removal CO as CO2 gas phase are studied at isothermal conditions.

A batch equation is used in this model to study the effect of reaction rate parameter k (sec −1 ) on conversion processes at contact time t = 2500 (sec) and to control the path of gases from and the reactor cavity to indicate the effect of contact time.

These results are confirming that the dissociated gases are removed by using catalysts to regenerate CO2 molecules during the electrical discharge.
