Nicotiana tabacum cells are cultured to high density for production of polysaccharide gum. The reactor used is a stirred tank that initially contains 100 litres of medium. The maximum specific growth rate of the culture is 0.18 day-1 and the yield of biomass from substrate is 0.5 g g-1. The concentration of growth-limiting substrate in the medium is 3% (w/v). The reactor is inoculated with 1.5 g L-1 of cells and operated in batch until the substrate is virtually exhausted;...
A batch culture of E. coli was initiated with a medium
containing 10 g/L of glucose, 2 g/L of ammonia, and 0.1 g/L of
cells
A batch culture of E. coli was initiated with a medium containing 10 g/L of glucose, 2 g/L of ammonia, and 0.1 g/L of cells. At the end of culture, 0.1 g/L of glucose remained in the medium. A total of 5.1 g/L of E. coli were recovered. The elemental composition of the cells was...
An aqueous solution containing reactant A is fed to a batch reactor, operated as part of a continuous process involving other equipment. The feed rate to the reactor is 500 L/min. The reaction, A + 2B rightarrow C is second order irreversible, with the rate expression given as rr_A = 0.04 C_AC_B, gmole/L middot min If C_A0 = 1.7 gmole/L and C_B0 = 3.0 gmole/L, what is the size of the reactor required to obtain an 80% conversion of A?...
1. Pure butanol (A) is fed to a semibatch reactor containing pure ethyl acetate (8) to produce butyl acetate (C) and ethanol (D). The liquid- phase reaction, A + B ㈠ C + D, is elementary and reversible and is carried out isothermally at 300 K. At this temperature, the equilibrium constant, Kc, is 1.08 and the specific reaction rate, k is 9 x 10 5 L mo s1.Initilly, there is 200 L of ethyl acetate in the reactor, and...
3. The bacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum has been aerobically cultured in a batch fermenter vessel on glucose at pH 7.0 and 20 °C to produce Glutamic acid for the manufacture of Mono Sodium Glutamate, a flavour compound for the food industry. The time course data for a typical batch culture of this bacterium in a fermenter vessel are given below: t (h) Cell dry weight (g l-1) Glucose concentration (g l-1) Glutamic acid concentration (g l-1) 0 1.22 100 0 8 ...

o) A two stage chemostate system is used for production of se 3 ry metabolite. The volume of each reactor is 2 m'; the flow rate of feed is 200 ocurs in the both ractors but the scecond reactor is used for L/h. Mycelial growth for product synthesis. The concentration of substrate in the feed is 20 g/1. Kinetic and yield parameters for the organisms are: Yxs = 0.5 kg/kg Ks 1.0 kg/m Hm 0.12/h ms = 0.025 kg/kg-h p...
Question 2 For an isothermal, constant volume batch reactor in which the following reaction is occurring A - B A laboratory technician measures the rate of reaction of A in a reactor for different concentrations, and obtains the following data: CA 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 1.0 [mol.L' -TA 0.1 0.4 0.9 1.6 2.5 3.6 4.9 6.4 10 (mol.L-min'] The laboratory technician tells you that if you plot - r against (CA) that you get a straight...
2. A batch reactor is to be used to treat raw water to achieve 95% pollutant removal. The pollutant has a second-order reaction rate constant of 0.35 L/(mg.day), what is the required residence time of water in the batch reactor, in days? 15 pts
Exercise 2.6. After 8 minutes in a jacketed batch reactor, 80% of reactant A is converted (ao = 1 mol L-1). After 18 minutes, the conversion is 90%. Knowing this information, find the kinetic order and calculate the value of the reaction rate for that order of reaction when the concentration of A inside the reactor is 0.2 mol L-1 ADDITIONAL DATA: The density of the reacting mixture does not change with conversion.
