Batch Enzyme Reactor

Product Description

Batch Enzyme Reactor MTS-901

The Teknik range of small scale chemical reactors includes four units that represent the common kinds of chemical reactor that can be found in the industry. This reactor system is designed to perform batch enzyme reaction making use of a glucose isomerisation reaction catalyze by glucose isomerase. This unit is apt for demonstrating batch enzyme kinetics and enzyme characteristics. The fourth reactor - stirred tank reactor in series is mounted on a unit. The reactors make use of the saponification reaction between sodium hydroxide and ethyl acetate. This gives a safe reaction for the students for investigation of different reactor types.

Microteknik have developed algorithms that link the degree of conversions of the reactants to the product's electrical conductivity. This is a way reaction progress is monitors in real time, without any problem and in accuracy of titration methods.
