Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOne-Dimensional Simulation of Diffusion and Advection Effects in Enzymatic Hydrolysis of CelluloseNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangEnzymatic hydrolysis process to transform lignocellulosic cellulose into sugar in a bioreactor tank involves different controlling factors such as advection, diffusion and fragmentation of cellulose chains. Although it has been observed experimentally that enzymatic hydrolysis is strongly influenced by the environmental effects in a tank, these effects have not been adequately quantified. In this study, a current kinetic model for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 7 · 13 Jul 2016 · 7,216 accessesView PDFCite
