Assesment of the possibility and accuracy of computational predictions of biofilm morphology in continuous bioreactors
Thickness, d. distribution and surface d. of biofilms for the aerobic degrdn. of glucose by Psedomonas aeruginosa bacteria were estd. by using the proprietary math. model based on cellular automata theory and compared with the values obtained expl. by B.M. Peyton (1996) and J.B. Xavier et al. (2004) The numerically designated one-dimensional distributions of biofilm d. were used for estg. the distributions of effective diffusion coeffs.
