Original Abstract

Discussions on the proper conceptualization and definition of autocatalysis are still lively. Several examples of autocatalytic reaction schemes are analyzed for their concentration and rate time profiles using computer modeling. Autocatalytic features should be inherent in a relevant scheme and its real demonstration further depends on “proper parametrization”, i.e., proper values for the rate parameters (their ratios) and relevant concentrations. Flow-through reactors bring a new complication due to the effects of inlet feed on reaction rates. When discussing kinetic features, one should take into account both concentration and rate profiles.
