Continuum heterogeneous biofilm model - A simple and accurate method for effectiveness factor determination

We present a novel analytical approach to describe biofilm processes considering continuum variation of both biofilm density and substrate effective diffusivity. A simple perturbation and matching technique was used to quantify biofilm activity using the steady-state diffusion-reaction equation with...
