Consider a 1000-l CSTR in which biomass is being produced
with glucose as the substrate. The microbial system follows a Monod
relationship withn µm = 0.4 h-1 , KS = 1.5
g/l (an unusu ally high value), and the yield factor YX/S = 0.5 g
biomass/g substrate consumed. If normal operation is with a sterile feed
containing 10 g/l glucose at a rate of 100 l/h. What is the specific biomass
production rate (g/l-h) at steady state?
