In a trickling biological filter, the BOD value of the feed stream is S_0i = 500 mg/l with a feed flow of F = 10³ l/h. The effluent BOD value is desired to be S₀ = 10 mg/l. The following kinetic parameters for the biocatalysts are known: r_m = 20 mg/S/l .h and K_s = 200 mg S/l. The biofilm thickness is L = 0.1 mm. The cross-sectional area of the filter is A = 2 m² , and the biofilm surface area per unit volume of the bed is a = 500 cm² /cm³ . Assume that dissolved oxygen is the rate-limiting substrate and the diffusion coefficient of oxygen is D_O2 = 2 × 10^-5 cm² /s. Determine the required height of the bed. You can assume first-order bioreaction kinetics?

Calculate the number of times the DNA of a modern E. coli cell has been copied accurately since its earliest bacterial precursor cell arose about 3.5 billion years ago. Assume for simplicity that over this time period, E. coli has undergone, on average, one cell division every 12 hours (this is an overestimate for modern bacteria, but probably an underestimate for ancient bacteria).
