Abstract
A kinetic mechanism is proposed for the low temperature oxidation of carbon monoxide. A general mathematical model which conserves all reactants, catalytic impurities and intermediate species is formulated to contain all proposed reactions without invoking the assumption of steady states. Numerically integrated solutions predict the observed kinetic behaviour of glow, explosion and oscillation. Particular effort has been directed to the study of the various characteristics connected with kinetic oscillations observed in the oxidation of carbon monoxide in both dry and wet mixtures.
