4. Fermentation is being carried out in a batch reactor. The organism follows Monod model of cell D gr growth with = 0.5 h¹, Ks = 2 g/L. If initial substrate concentration is So = 50 g/L, Y = 0.1 (g of cells! g of substrate), xo = 0 g/L, then at what time cell concentration will be 2 g/L, what will be the specific cell growth then? Draw a sketch of specific cell growth vs time of fermentation. When the cell concentration is 5 g/L, what will be the specific growth rate then? [8]
