Abstract
The stationary behaviour of a kinetic model close to that describing t he real nitric acid-hydroxylamine reaction is studied under conditions of a continuously fed stirred tank reactor (c.s.t.r.). It is shown th at this system has an interesting mathematical property - three positi ve stationary states in an unbounded region of the feed concentration. Two of these states are always locally asymptotically stable to pertu rbation while one is always unstable.
