Abstract

The mathematical model of immobilized enzyme system in porous spherical particle is presented. This model is based on a non-stationary diffusion equation containing a nonlinear term related to Michaelis-Menten kinetics of enzymatic reaction. A general and closed form of an analytical expression pertaining to the substrate concentration profile and effectiveness factor are reported for all possible values of Thiele modules φ andα . However, we have employed New Homotopy Perturbation Method (NHPM) to solve the nonlinear reaction/diffusion equation in immobilized enzymes system. Therefore, analytical results were found to be in an appropriate agreement with simulation result.
