Generalized transport equations for description of diffusion-reaction processes in chemically active mixtures are obtained. The nonequilibrium statistical operator method by Zubarev is used and both strong and weak nonequilibrium processes are analyzed. In the approximation of the second order in fluctuations we get generalized equations of chemical kinetics for bimolecular reactions with generalized rate constants. In the case of spatial uniformity the integro-differential equation for the matrix of partial scattering functions is received, which are related to partial dynamic structure factors of chemically reactive system by the time Fourier transformation.
