Abstract
A theoretical analysis of membrane bioreactors is presented and the use of systematic simulation for experimental data analysis is exemplified. A computational model was developed to describe the lipase catalysed hydrolysis of olive oil in a reversed micellar media, carried out in a CSTR recycle type membrane reactor. Simulations were carried out using a fourth-order Runge-Kutta integration method and with varying kinetic expressions. As in other reported cases, the dynamic of this reactor is mainly controlled by the kinetics of the reaction.
