Notes:
A method is proposed for computing the steady state activity levels at various points within a reactor-regenerator system in which the residence time distribution functions in the reactor and regenerator, the permanent deactivation function, and the temporary deactivation and activation functions are arbitrarily specified. A particularly simple solution to these equations is obtained when the temporary activation and deactivation functions are of exponential form. The latter equations are used to calculate values of the mean activity in the reactor for the limiting cases of piston type of flow and complete mixing under a variety of conditions.
