Microbial cell recovery is carried out in a continuous disc-stack centrifuge. The centrifuge is operated at 5000 rpm for separation of baker's yeast. At a feed rate of 60 1/min, 50% of the cells are recovered. At constant speed, solid recovery is inversely proportional to flow rate. What flow rate is required to recover 90% of cells if the centrifuge speed is fixed at 5000 rpm?

A continuous process is set up for treatment of wastewater. Each day, 10⁵ kg cellulose and 10³ kg bacteria enter in the feed stream, while 10⁴ kg cellulose and 1.5 x 10⁴ kg bacteria leave in the effluent. The rate of cellulose digestion by the bacteria is 7 x 10⁴ kg d^-1. The rate of bacterial growth is 2 x 10⁴ kg d^-1 ; the rate of cell death by lysis is 5 x 10² kg d^-1. Write balances for cellulose and bacteria in the system.
