    Notes: A laboratory-scale multiphase hollow fiber membrane reactor was employed to investigate the lipase-catalyzed enzymatic resolution of racemic glycidyl butyrate. A mathematical formulation was feveloped to simulate the performance of this system. Model parameters were determined independently (except the effective rate constant, ks) and incorporated in the model simulations. In this study, two modes of operation are considered: subtractive resolution, in which the unreacted substrate is recovered in the organic stream; and product recovery, where the optically pure product of the enzymatic reaction is recovered in the aqueous stream. Good agreement was obtained between theoretical predictions and experimental results under a variety of conditions. The effect of mass transport limitations on the performance of this system was investigated. An increase in enzyme loading resulted in a higher Thiele modulus due to an elevated rate constant as well as a concomitant decrease in the effective diffusivity. Optical purity decreased in both subtractive resolution and product recovery at higher Thiele modulus with the effect being more pronounced in the product recovery mode. Finally, normalized plots were established to describe the effect of enzyme immobilization on both the effective enzymes activity and effective diffusivity. © 1993 Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Microfiltration of yeast suspensions with self-cleaning spiral vortices: Possibilities for a new membrane module design (1995)

    Notes: A novel method of producing controlled vortices was used to reduce both concentration polarization and membrane fouling during microfiltration of Saccharomyces cerevisiae broth suspensions. The method involves flow around a curved channel at a sufficient rate so as to produce centrifugal instabilities (called Dean vortices). These vortices depolarize the build-up of suspended particles such as yeast cells at the membrane-solution interface and allow for increased membrane permeation rates. Various operating conditions under which such vortices effectively reduced cake build-up of suspended particles such as yeast cells at the membrane-solution interface and allow for increased membrane permeation rates. Various operating conditions under which such vortices effectively reduced cake build-up during microfiltration of 0 to 0.55 dry wt% yeast broth were investigated. Flux improvements of over 60% for 0.25 dry wt% yeast broth for flow with over that without Dean vortices were observed. This beneficial effect increased with increasing retentate flow rate and increasing transmembrane pressure and decreased with increasing concentration of suspended matter. Similar behavior was observed whether the cells were viable of killed. the improvement in flux in the presence over that in the absence of vortices correlated well with centrifugal force or azimuthal velocity squared. The relative cake resistances increased with reservoir yeast concentration. These values with vortices increased from 62% to 75% of that without vortices with increasing yeast concentration. The ratio of the cake thicknesses in the limiting case (at high feed concentration) was 3.25. These results suggest that self-cleaning spiral vortices could be effective in maintaining good and steady microfiltration performance with cell suspensions other than those tested. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
