Abstract
Macroscopic concentration gradients are measured through spatial micro electrode scans in the most turbulently stirred zone of a CSTR on both steady states of the bistable Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. The conc entration distribution that exists on the macroscale is shown to arise indirectly from the spatial dependence of the micromixing time throug h the coupling of chemical reaction with micromixing.
