The Basic System in a Packed Bed Reactor

When comparing experimental and theoretical results it should be mentioned that in addition to processes that are related to the reaction mechanisms but not considered in the model (see Section 4.3.6), several assumptions related to the operational mode are also made. For example, in the analytical model developed for the packed bed reactor it was assumed that no diffusion limitations are operative and that the immobilized enzymes are distributed in 

4 THE EXTENDED BASIC SYSTEM THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS AND RESULTS 

An extension of the basic system considered in this work is termed the extended basic system. This system was also designed to function as an information-processing unit and is characterized in Section 4.4.1. Its chrac-teristics as an informahon-processing unit are described in Section 4.4.2. In Sechon 4.4.3 the analytical model that was written for the extended basic system is presented. Using this model, numerical simulations were carried out and their results are presented in Section 4.4.4.
