Enzymatic Reactors: Design and Optimization focuses on analysis of enzyme reactor performance, departing from the simplest cases of ideal reactors - first considered individually as single units, and in combination encompassing multiple units at a subsequent stage, and gradually improving the quality of modelling through contributions by nonideal hydrodynamics and mass transfer, to ultimately reach the more involved interactions with separation (alternating or in situ) and (classical) control of operation. The book helps evolve knowledge acquisition steps, grasp on the underlying concepts, and extend the concepts to overall reactor operation.

Enzymatic Reactors: Design and Optimization considers three levels of description: (i) macroscopic, or ideal; (ii) microscopic, or nonideal in terms of hydrodynamics (including homogeneous, nontrivial flow patterns) and mass transfer (including multiphasic systems); and (iii) submicroscopic, or nonideal in terms of mixing. The quality of the approximation increases in this order following the complexity of the supported mathematical models, and the thoroughness of the experimental data.
