      The paper investigates a system of semi-linear reaction-diffusion equations in a bounded domain as applicable to biological systems. The biological system presented in the paper consists of the decomposition of the organic matter by microorganism and is modeled through a reaction-diffusion equation with appropriate initial and boundary conditions. A finite element discretization is carried out and numerical results are presented for the evolution of the masses of the organic matter. Some theorems are also proved, however, the paper lacks analysis of the results.
