Notes:
In the present work, a mathematical model was developed regarding the immobilized living yeast cell reactor for sugar bioconversion to ethanol. The model, composed of a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) enables the computation of the paramters involved in the steady state reactor behaviour. Comparing the values computed through the integration of this mathematical model with the experimental data, it has been shown its capacity to describe sufficiently accurate the steady state behaviour of the continuous fixed film bioconversion reactor.
