KAl(SO4)2 thermal decomposition kinetics modeling through graphical and PSO methods

The present manuscript proposes the use of two different approaches for kinetic modeling to study the thermal decomposition of sulfates: a graphical one (sigmoid) and a stochastic one (particle swarm optimization - PSO). Three scenarios were analyzed: pure potassium alum, pure aluminum sulfate, and...
