Refer to Q1 and Q2, and determine the value of the maintenance coefficient (g substrate/g DCW^-h).(a) 0.099 g substrate/g DCW^-h(b) 0.089 g substrate/g DCW^-h(c) 0.079 g substrate/g DCW^-h(d) 0.069 g substrate/g DCW^-hI have been asked this question in final exam.Query is from Effect of Maintenance on Yields topic in section Homogenous Reactions of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) 0.099 G substrate/g DCW^-h

To EXPLAIN: 10% of the substrate goes to MAINTAINING the cells.

m = (10 g substrate/l.0.10)/(1.81 g DCW/L.5.63 HR)

= 0.099 g substrate/g DCW^-h.
