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 glucose conversion at the exit of the column?

Hybridoma cells immobilized on surfaces of Sephadex beads are used in a packed column for production of monoclonoal antibodies (Mab). Hybridoma concentration is approximately X = 5 g/l in the bed. The flow rate of the synthetic medium and glucose concentration are Q = 2 l/h and S0 = 40 g/l, respectively. The rate constant for Mab formation is k = 1 gX/l-d. Assume that there are no diffusion limitations and glucose is the rate limiting nutrient.  If Yp/s is 4 mg Mab/g glu, determine the effluent Mab concentration of the system?
