This is very good paper. A solution is developed for a convection-diffusion equation describing chemical transport with sorption, decay, and production. The problem is formulated in a finite domain where the appropriate conservation law yields Robin conditions at the ends. When the input concentration is arbitrary, the problem is underdetermined because of an unknown exit concentration. The authors solve this by defining the exit concentration as a solution to a similiar diffusion equation which satisfies a Dirichlet condition at the end of the half line. Moreover, the authors of previous works on problems of this type have eliminated the unknown exit concentration by assuming a continuous concentration at the outflow boundary. This yields a well-posed problem by forcing a homogeneous Neumann exit, widely known as Danckwerts conditions. We provide a solution to that problem and use it to produce an estimate which demonstrates that Danckwerts condition implies a zero concentration on the outflow boundary, even for a long flow domain and a large time.
