Pseudo Master Curve Analysis of an Infinite Number of Parallel First-Order Reactions: Improved Distributed Activation Energy Model.

ABSTRACT: The so-called Distributed Activation Energy Model (DAEM) has been used extensively, mainly to analyze pyrolysis reactions of solid reactants. The model expresses many parallel first-order reactions using the distributions of activation energy f(E) and frequency factor k ₀(E). Miura and Maki presented a method to estimate both f(E) and k ₀(E) in the DAEM in 1998. This model has been used successfully by many researchers. In this paper more general basic equations are derived for describing an infinite number of parallel first-order reactions by extending the basic equations for the finite number of parallel first-order reactions. Revisiting the Miura-Maki method based on the general basic equations, a graphical an
