Kinetic behaviour of electrochemical potential in three-phase heterogeneous catalytic oxidation reactions

Kinetic behaviour of catalyst electrochemical potential was studied during three-phase heterogeneous reaction Of D-lactose oxidation. The influence of different factors on in situ measured catalyst electrochemical potential is considered. A kinetic model capable to explain transient behaviour of catalyst electrochemical potential at different conditions such as conversion, oxygen partial pressure, temperature and pH is proposed.
