contents The fast reaction limit for a nonlinear bulk-surface reaction-diffusion system is investigated. This system describes a reversible reaction with arbitrary stoichiometric coefficients, where one chemical is present in a bounded vessel $Ω$ and the other chemical lies only on the boundary $\partialΩ$ where the reaction takes place. In the limit as the reaction rate constant tends to infinity, we prove that the solution converges in $L^p(0,T;L^p(Ω))$ to the solution of a heat equation with nonlinear dynamical boundary condition. This is obtained by showing a-priori estimates of solutions which are uniform in the reaction rate constants. In order to overcome the difficulty caused by the bulk-surface coupling, we consider the limit in suitable product spaces where the Aubin-Lions lemma is applicable. Moreover, in the case of equal stoichiometric coefficients, we obtain the convergence rate of the fast reaction limit by exploiting suitable estimates of the limiting system.
