Abstract
Engineers responsible for fertiliser plants frequently encounter unresolved problems associated with catalytic reaction kinetics. Measurements are recorded over an extended period at a representative site within fertiliser plants. The measurements indicate that catalytic reaction kinetics varies by nearly 56% across the operating range. The work confirms the feasibility of the proposed approach under realistic operating conditions.
