Abstract: | An analytical model was developed for describing the performance of packed-bed enzymic reactors operating with two cosubstrates, and when one of the reaction products is inhibitory to the enzyme. To this aim, the compartmental analysis technique was used. The relevant equations obtained were solved numerically, and the effect of the main operational parameters on the reactor characteristics were studied.Notation
