Abstract
Effectiveness factor for irreversible two step consecutive reaction with the Michaelis-Menten Kinetics was calculated numerically. The effect of the first reaction on the second reaction was studied by varying the Thiele modulus, M-M constants and the relative rate of the film mass transfer as compared with that of the pore. In all cases the first reaction enhanced the second reaction of which effectiveness factor sometimes exceeded one.
