Modelling and parameter estimation in reactive continuous mixtures: the catalytic cracking of alkanes - part II

Fragmentation kinetics is employed to model a continuous reactive mixture of alkanes under catalytic cracking conditions. Standard moment analysis techniques are employed, and a dynamic system for the time evolution of moments of the mixture's dimensionless concentration distribution function (DCDF) is found. The time behavior of the DCDF is recovered with successive estimations of scaled gamma distributions using the moments time data.
