Open questionBTNAT2 marksNeeds review
A batch cultivation of
follows zero order Monod’s growth kinetics. The cell growth is terminated when the residual dissolved oxygen concentration attains 10% of its saturation value and oxygen mass transfer coefficient (
) reaches its maximum value (
). The saturation value of dissolved oxygen concentration is
. If the maximum specific growth rate and yield coefficient (
) are
and
, respectively, then the final cell concentration in
(rounded off to two decimal places) at the end of the batch cultivation is ________.Log in to check the answer
