Research
Applicability and Scale-Up of Fine Bubble Technology in Biocatalytic applications
Many biocatalytic reactions are carried out in multiphase systems, where the gas phase acts as second substrate. The focus of this research study is working with a novel method of aeration with fine bubbles in order to increase enzyme stability and mass transfer. The outcome can improve and optimize biocatalytic reactions utilizing gaseous substrates for various enzymatic reaction systems.
