Abstract
A simple unstructured mathematical model for the oxidation of glucose to 2, 5-diketo-D-gluconic acid with Erwinia citreus was developed. The kinetic pa rameters of the model were estimated by the oxygen partial pressure method and directly from the temporal response obtained from the experimental data collected in the batch fermentation. The simple developed model based on t he kinetic measurements was able to simulate quite well the dynamic behavio ur of the batch fermentation.
