#Section 5: Bioprocess Engineering and Process Biotechnology
Glucose is converted to ethanol by immobilized yeast cells
entrapped in gel beads. The specific rate of ethanol production is: qP
= 0.2 g ethanol/g-cell-h. The effectiveness factor for an average bead is 0.8.
Each bead contains 50 g/L of cells. The voids volume in the column is 40%.
Assume growth is negligible (all glucose is converted into ethanol). The feed
flow rate is F = 400 l/h and glucose concentration in the feed is S0i
= 150 g glucose/l. The diameter of the column is 1 m and the yield coefficient
is about 0.49 g ethanol/g glucose. The column height is 4 m. What is the
ethanol concentration in the exit stream?
