Hi guys,

I want to solve a convection-diffusion equation with an absorption source term (Liner Driving Force model and Langmuir-Freundlich isothermals), but I don't know how to linearise this source term. Please see the following equations:

\frac{\partial c}{\partial t}+u \frac{\partial c}{\partial z} -D_{z}\frac{\partial^{2} c}{\partial z^{2}}+\rho_{p} \frac{\partial q}{\partial t} =0

\frac{\partial q}{\partial t} =k^{*}_{LDF} (q^{*}-q)

q^{*}=\frac{q_{max} (bcRT)^{\frac{1}{n}}}{1+(bcRT)^{\frac{1}{n}}}

where c is the variable, and others are constant. I wonder how to linearise this q^{*}. Please give me some advice, and I really appreciate your time and patience.
