We investigate the effects of stirring on the kinetics of the

 reaction under stoichiometrical conditions in 2D. We consider both a steady eddy-lattice flow and a random flow mimicking turbulence. In both situations complex decay patterns are detected. Only an intermediate stage of the reaction is dominated by mixing. The long-time behavior shows fluctuation-dominated kinetics,
