The determination of multiple steady-states for a family of catalytic reactions in an isothermal CFSTR
The Subnetwork Corollary provides some sufficient conditions for which a complex reaction network could be determined to have capacity of admitting multiple positive steady-states, if it contains a subnetwork that also admit multiple positive steady-states. A family of reaction networks, involving catalytic reactions in an isothermal continuous flow stirred tank reactor (CFSTR), is determined to have the capacity to exhibit steady-state multiplicity by implementation of the Deficiency One Algorithm and the Subnetwork Corollary. A set of rate constants and two corresponding positive steady-states are constructed for several cases.
