✦ Synopsis

The applicability of concentric airlift reactors for immobilized enzyme reaction has been studied. Because of simple mechanical structure, good mix&, 0 relatively low shear stress, and lower power consumption, the airlift reactor is apealing for immobilized enzyme reaction. The operation conditions can be optimized by manipulatmg aeration rate, top clearance space, and solid content.
