A facile fluorescent method was developed to quantitatively monitor the hydrolysis kinetics of nonfluorescent esters by using a fluorecent endo-functionalized molecular tube and its recognition ability towards small polar molecules in water. It is possible to determine the apparent rate constants and study the structure-activity relationship.

The fact that the active biomass is continuously removed from the continuously stirred anaerobic digesters, leading to long retention times, has been overcome in a number of high rate systems based on immobilization of the active biomass, such as the Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket Reactor (UASBR) and the Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (ABR). A kinetic model of glucose consumption, which was developed based on a batch kinetic experiment, was used for the development of a dynamic model for the prediction of the behaviour of the recently developed flexible reactor called the Periodic Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (PABR). The PABR may be operated as a UASBR, an ABR or at an intermediate mode. The key assumption of the model is that the hydraulic behaviour of a PABR is equivalent with the behaviour of CSTRs in series as concerning the dissolved matter, whereas the biomass is allowed to be retained in the PABR through a retention factor accounting for precipitation. The model adequately predicted the experimental behaviour of a glucose fed PABR. The model was subsequently used to examine the behaviour of the PABR as a function of operating conditions, both for constant and varying loading rates. It was shown that for different cases, the reactor should best be operated as a UASBR or as an ABR.

The Kinetics of Basic Cleavage of Nitrophenyl Alkanoate Esters by 'Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin' in Aqueous Solution

The kinetics of cleavage of m- and p-nitrophenyl alakanoates by 'hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin' (Hp-β-CD) in basic aqueous solution vary significantly with the chain length of the esters (C2 to C10).For both series of esters with short chains (C2 to C6) simple saturation kinetics are observed, indicative of 1:1 (ester:CD) binding and reaction of one molecule of ester with one molecule of Hp-β-CD.For longer chains, there is also a cleavage process involving two molecules of Hp-β-CD.This type of behaviour was not found previously for the same esters reacting with α-CD and with β-CD but it has been observed for some carboxynitrophenyl alkanoates.With the longest esters there is also evidence of productive 1:2 (ester:CD) binding.For the 1:1 binding, there is a linear dependence of the strength on acyl chain length and the close similarity of the dissociation constants for the two series of esters implicate inclusion of the alkyl chains of the esters acyl groups.Transition-state binding is more complex: for the meta-nitro isomers aryl-group inclusion appears dominant whereas for the para isomers there seems to be a switch from aryl-group inclusion to acyl-group inclusion, occurring at a chain length of C6-C7.
