This paper introduces a novel approach to approximate a broad range of reaction–convection–diffusion equations using conforming finite element methods while providing a discrete solution respecting the physical bounds given by the underlying differential equation. The main result of this work demonstrates that the numerical solution achieves an accuracy of [Formula: see text] in the energy norm, where [Formula: see text] represents the underlying polynomial degree. To validate the approach, a series of numerical experiments had been conducted for various problem instances. Comparisons with the linear continuous interior penalty stabilised method, and the algebraic flux-correction scheme (for the piecewise linear finite element case) have been carried out, where we can observe the favorable performance of the current approach.
