Resumen:
Themodeling of conventional reactors based on first principles usually requiresthe solution of the momentum, thermal energy and multicomponent massconservation equations. In the case of photocatalytic reactors, the equation ofradiative transfer must be considered. This equation can be solvedindependently of the thermal energy equation since thermal effects are usuallynegligible for photocatalytic processes. Therefore, the main interest of thischapter will be focused on the evaluation of the radiation absorption and itseffect on the kinetics of the photocatalytic reaction.
