The concentration profiles along the feeding direction of a one side fed gel reactor are analyzed for the iodate-arsenous acid reaction. Multiplicity of inhomogeneous stationary solutions is derived. It is also shown that such profiles may undergo oscillatory bifurcations under long range activation conditions. The bifurcation diagram is analyzed using a Galerkin approximation, the asymptotic validity of which is discussed.
