Resumo(s)

The nonlinear dependence of the rate expressions associated with enzymecatalysed reactions on the concentration of substrate implies that the corresponding integrated form of the substrate mass balance in a batch reactor cannot be expressed as an explicit function of time..This paper addresses this problem for the classical case of Michaelis—Menten kinetics by providing a self-pacing exploration of the characteristics of a Taylor expansion of the substrate concentration on time. The accuracy of such an approximation is discussed. The procedure presented is appropriate to model situations of technological and practical interest.
