In this work, the totally asymmetric exclusion process without particle number conservation is discussed. Based on the mean field approximation and the Rankine-Hugoniot condition, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a domain wall have been obtained. Moreover, the properties of the domain wall, including its location and height, have been studied theoretically. All the theoretical results are demonstrated by computer simulations.
