An integrative laboratory study addressing fundamentals of enzyme catalysis and their application to reactors operation and modeling is presented. Invertase, a β-fructofuranosidase that catalyses the hydrolysis of sucrose, is used as the model enzyme at optimal conditions (pH 4.5 and 45 °C). The experimental work involves 3 h of laboratory time for each student per week over four weeks. Students, organized in laboratory sessions of three groups with 3 or 4 students per group, work in a collaborative manner to obtain a set of replicates of initial reaction rate for different substrate concentrations, using both free and calcium alginate-immobilized Saccharomyces bayanus cells containing biologically active invertase. The results are shared by all of the groups for statistical data treatment, calculation of Michaelis–Menten kinetic parameters, and modeling of three types of classical reactors, a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR), a Plug Flow Reactor (PFR), and a Fluidized Bed Reactor (FBR), operating i...
