    4.1.1 The problem

    Glucose isomerase, immobilized on a solid support, is used industrially to produce glucose syrups enriched with fructose. The isomerization reaction of glucose to fructose is balanced, and the equilibrium constant, which varies little with temperature, is close to 1.

    A unit is to be designed to isomerize 45% of the glucose in a glucose syrup with a concentration of 2,800 mol/m 3 . The conversion value chosen represents...
