In this paper, we study the numerical methods for solving a nonlinear reaction-diffusion model for the polarization phenomena in ionic conductors. In particular, we propose three types of numerical methods, including the finite difference, cubic B-spline collocation, and local discontinuous Galerkin method, to approximate the quenching time of the model. We prove the conservation properties for all three numerical methods and compare their numerical performance.
