However, biotechnological processes often have low product concentrations and production rates. This is where process intensification can help to make these processes competitive. Using the example of the multi-enzymatic synthesis of natural cinnamyl cinnamate, it is shown how an existing multi-enzymatic process can be intensified by using an enzyme membrane reactor. The individual enzymatic reactions are first characterised in laboratory scale and then combined in a mini plant. In addition, a process model of the mini plant is developed. It is shown that the use of an enzyme membrane reactor can increase the production rate of the multi-enzymatic process by a factor of 10 compared to a previously investigated set-up.en0255-27012025Elsevierhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Alcohol dehydrogenaseEnzyme membrane reactorFormate dehydrogenasePolymeric membranesUltrafiltrationNatural Sciences and Mathematics::570: Life Sciences, BiologyTechnology::660: Chemistry; Chemical EngineeringJournal Articlehttps://doi.org/10.15480/882.1583010.1016/j.cep.2025.11049910.15480/882.15830Journal Article
