✦ Synopsis

A theoretical equation for comparison of the bioreaction rates in a biofilm reactor and in a bioreactor with free suspended cells at different input substrate concentrations and substrate conversions is proposed. The main assumption is that there is no kinetic change after fixation of the cells. Some previously published experimental data are used for verification of this equation. It is shown that difference between the experimental and calculated data is within 19%.

David and Wllermaux (1987,1989) and Muhr et al. (1990) have developed and applied a multizone mixing model (MZM) for semi-batch single jet mixing in stirred tanks. The aim of the present paper is to generalize the multizone model (MZM) to the case of a semi-batch stirred tank with two separate feeds
