Abstract: In this paper we show how the methods of statistical physics may be applied to describe the nonequilibrium effects in systems with thermally activated reactions. A special attention is given to systems with multiple reactions, in which such effects are more important then in systems with a single reaction. Considering a model reaction scheme we demonstrate that a simple phenomenology, which associates different temperatures to different reagents, gives an accurate description of the nonequilibrium effects.
