During ethanol batch culture fermentation, the specific growth rate of bacterium was calculated as 0.25 h-1. In the aim to enhance ethanol production, a continuous culture was fed with 0.1 g/L of glucose at D = 0.345 h-1 where the growth limiting substrate concentration was 0.01 g/L. The yield coefficient based on glucose was 0.6 g cell/g glucose.a). Evaluate the maximum specific growth rate if the feed glucose was increased by 0.5 g/L while the dilution rate increased up to 0.6 h-1.b). Based on your answer in (a), describe what would be happen if dilution rate is increased up to 0.6 h-1.c) Determine the biomass, đť‘‹, at steady- state condition, if the feed glucose was increased to 0.5 g/L. d). Plot the response of the culture in terms of X, S, P and ÎĽ after the feed concentration was changed until after new steady state was reached.e). Describe physically in terms of dilution rate and maximum specific growth rate from your answer in (c).
