Description
The equations describing diffusion on a heterogeneous lattice for low concentrations are considered taking into account lattice site blocking. It is shown that lattice site blocking cannot be disregarded in the case of a strongly heterogeneous lattice even for low concentrations. It is established that the equation with a fractional time derivative holds only in a bounded time interval. Anomalous diffusion, which is described by the equation with a fractional time derivative at the initial stage, must be described over long time periods by an ordinary diffusion equation with a concentration-dependent diffusion coefficient
