Abstract

The sensitivity of a conceptual model of a foam emulsion bioreactor (FEBR) used for the control of toluene vapors in air was examined. Model parametric sensitivity studies showed which parameters affect the removal of toluene (as model pollutant) in the FEBR the most significantly, and enabled definition of the limits of the process. Detailed examination of the results indicated that the process is highly complex and that both mass transfer and kinetic limitations can coexist in the bioreactor system. These results will help with the optimization of the design and operation of FEBRs. Biotechnol. Bioeng. 2009; 102: 708–713. Β© 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract Recently, a new type of bioreactor for air pollution control referred to as the foamed emulsion bioreactor (FEBR) has been developed. The process relies on the emulsion of an organic phase with a suspension of an actively growing culture of pollutant‐degrading microorganisms, made into

A model was developed to describe the conversion degree in a membrane bioreactor (MBR) for the synthesis of short-chain esters as a function of the flow rate. The transesterification reaction was catalyzed by a recombinant cutinase of Fusarium solani pisi microencapsulated in reversed micelles of AO

A previously developed model for sequencing batch reactors was used in this study to investigate the effect of some of the model stoichiometric and operating parameters on the performance of the system. With regard to the efΒ―uent chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration, the model predictions were
