Use of immobilized enzymes in an expanded or fluidized bed has certain advantages over use of immobilized enzymes in a fixed bed. The most important advantages of such operations are that plugging is totally avoided and that it is possible to use substrates containing particulate materials. In spite of these advantages, almost all industrially enzyme-catalyzed continuous processes in which immobilized enzymes are used are performed in fixed bed, among other reasons because in an expanded or fluidized bed the particles having enzymatic activity are worn down during operation as a result of collisions between the individual particles. 1, record 1, English, - fixed%20bed

Fixed bed reactors. In fixed bed fermenters, the cells are immobilized by absorption on or entrapment in solid, non-moving solid surfaces. In one type of fixed bed fermenter, the cells are immobilized on the surfaces of immobile solid particles such as plastic blocks, concrete blocks, wood shavings or fibrous material such as plastic or glass wool. The liquid feed is either pumped through or allowed to trickle over the surface of the solids where the immobilized cells convert the substrates into products. Once steady state has been reached there will be a continuous cell loss from the solid surfaces. These types of fermenters are widely used in waste treatment and as biological filters in small aquarium water recycling systems. 1, record 3, English, - fixed%20bed
