Combined external and internal mass transfer effects in heterogeneous (enzyme) catalysis.
A graphical method is outlined in order to calculate the conversion under combined intra- and extraparticle transport limitations using the existing effectiveness factor charts for intraparticle diffusion. This method is applied to the case of an immobilized enzyme, assuming that the kinetics are of the Michaelis-Menten type.
