Lgt. Vieira et al., ESTIMATION OF INTRINSIC KINETIC-PARAMETERS IN IMMOBILIZED CELL SYSTEMS FOR ANAEROBIC WASTE-WATER TREATMENT, Biotechnology techniques, 10(9), 1996, pp. 635-638
Intrinsic kinetic parameters for anaerobic sludge immobilised in polyu
rethane foam matrices treating a glucose based substrate were estimate
d under negligible mass transfer resistance in shaker incubator experi
ments. Micro-granules detachment due to high rotational agitation spee
ds was found to affect the results.
