Complete Analytical Solution of the Statistical Rate Theory: Desorption from Solid/Solution Interfaces

One of the essential steps in the design and regeneration of catalysts is desorption. Kinetics modeling of the desorption process is essential for a better understanding of this process. The statistical rate theory (SRT) method is one of the essential theoretical methods that can be used to study the rate of desorption. For the first time, a complete solution of the SRT equation for desorption from the solid surface to the solution phase (SRT-D) is reported. The new integrated equations are provided as the linear forms, which have been denoted as the SRT-LFD equations. The first complete analytical solution of the SRT-D equation is confirmed using the created data by numerical solution of the SRT-D equation and the experimental data. The perfect agreement between the obtained results of the SRT-LFD equations and the results of the created and experimental data confirms the accuracy of the obtained equations.
