The terms “Concentrated effluent” and “Diluted effluent” are used in internal feedback systems.(a) True(b) FalseI have been asked this question in quiz.This intriguing question originated from Comparison of Batch and Continuous Culture in Industrial Processes topic in division Microbial Growth Kinetics of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer»

The correct option is (b) False

To ELABORATE: In internal feedback systems, effluent is removed from the vessel in two streams:

1) FILTERED stream

2) Unfiltered stream

Filtered stream SERVES the purpose of feedback, whereas, Unfiltered stream is UTILISED for product harvesting.

In external feedback systems, Effluent from fermenter is fed through a separator.

Two effluent streams are: 1) Concentrated stream

2) DILUTED stream

Wherein, Concentrated stream serves as feedback and Diluted is used for product harvesting.
