The aim of this paper is to assess the kinetic models of chitosan pyrolysis and to estimate the kinetics triplet (E, A and the shape of the most appropriate f-function) of this process by means of thermogravimetric data, using different calculation procedures.
These models can quickly predict the reaction rate and estimate the kinetics behavior of the reaction.
The parametric ntPET model (p-ntPET) estimates the kinetics of neurotransmitter release from dynamic PET data with receptor ligand radiotracers.
The differential method of Bramley, Hounslow, and Ryall (J. Colloid Interface Sci. 183 (1996) 155) modified for semi-batch crystallisation, was used to estimate the kinetics from each set of experimental data.
In vitro gas production was recorded at 3, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 84 and 96 h of incubation and used to estimate the kinetics of gas production.
A Tafel analysis of these plots allowed us to estimate the kinetics parameters of methanol oxidation, i.e. the charge transfer coefficient α of the rate determining step and the heat of activation Δ of the overall process.
Experiments were conducted to estimate the kinetics under the same process conditions (e.g. temperature, hydrodynamics and composition) from three different crystalliser configurations, i.e. (1) batch; (2) semi-batch at constant composition with representative solids removal and (3) semi-batch at constant composition with classified solids removal.
To estimate the kinetics parameters of 2C4NP degradation, the effect of initial 2C4NP concentration (0.05 2 mM) on growth of strain CNP-8 was investigated.
In order to estimate the kinetics of the electrode, the cyclic voltammetries (CVs) of cubic PtCu NC electrode were measured in 0.1 M PBS containing 1.0 mM H2O2 at different scan rates.
