Abstract

Enzymatic reactors are a class of reactors that use an enzyme as catalyst during the reaction process. They have received attention because they are environmentally friendly and they have applications in chemical, food, pharmaceutical,  biotechnological and other industries. The present review analyzes the most common problems related to the design of those, as well as the solutions to overcome them and the operation type.
