dc.descriptionWe investigate nonequilibrium chemical reaction systems from the view point of steady state thermodynamics proposed by Oono and Paniconi [Prog. Theor. Phys. Suppl. 130, 29 (1998)]. The concentrations of some compounds are operated by an external system, so that a transition from a steady state to other steady state takes place. We show that an analogue of Clausius inequality holds macroscopically for the operation processes. This implies that the second law of thermodynamics can be generalized, including nonequilibrium steady states.
