The paper examines a semilinear singular reaction-diffusion problem. Using the col-
location method with naturally chosen splines of exponential type, a new difference scheme on a mesh of Bakhvalov type is constructed. A difference scheme generates the system of non-linear equations, and the theorem of existence and this system’s solution uniqueness is also provided. At the end, a numerical example, is given as well, which points to the convergence of the numerical solution to the exact one.
