The paper is concerned with the uniqueness and existence problem for a multidimensional reacting and convection system with the vanishing viscosity method. The uniqueness theorem is obtained from the stability with respect to the initial data. To solve the existence problem, the uniqueness and existence of solutions to a viscous system are first proved, and then the L1-modulus of continuity of solutions independent of the small viscosity is obtained.
