A bibliographic review of mathematical models of packed-bed biological reactors (PBR)

Several authors have subjected packed-bed biological reactors to mathematical and theoretical analysis. They have taken reaction kinetics and single-dimensional, homogeneous, pseudo-homogeneous and heterogeneous models into account. Numerical methods have provided the set of equations so developed. The effect of physically important process variables in terms of design and operation have been investigated (i.e. residence time, operating-flow, substrate conversion, bio-film area and film thickness).
