Extracted text: The bacteria X-II can be described by a simple Monod equation with umax = 0.8 h', Additional Homework Problem #5 As = 4 g/dm and YpC = 0.2 g/g and Ysc = 2.2. g/g. The process is carried out in a chemostat (CSTR) in which the feed rate is 1000 dm/h at a substrate concentration of Cso =10 g/dm'. a) What size fermentor is needed to achieve 90% conversion of the substrate. b) What is the exiting cell concentration? c) Determine the volumetric flow rate at which wash-out occurs and also the flow rate at which the cell production rate is a maximum?
