Several authors have subjected packed-bed biological reactors to mathematical and theoretical analysis. They have taken reaction kinetics and single-dimensional, homogeneous, pseudo-homogeneous and heterogeneous models into account. Numerical methods have provided the set of equations so developed. The effect of physically important process variables in terms of design and operation have been investigated (i.e. residence time, operating-flow, substrate conversion, bio-film area and film thickness).

El modelo matemático y análisis teórico de reactores biológicos de lecho empacado (PBR) ha sido estudiado por diferentes autores, quienes tuvieron en cuenta variedad de cinéticas de reacción, modelos unidimensionales, homogéneos, pseudohomogéneos y heterogéneos. Las ecuaciones resultantes del modelo fueron solucionadas, en su gran mayoría, por sistemas de métodos numéricos. Se ha analizado en estos el efecto de variables de proceso de importancia física con respecto a parámetros de diseño y operación, como tiempos de residencia, flujos de operación, conversiones de sustrato, área y superficie del biofilm, entre otros.
