The following values were taken from the Richard's table on the thermal death kinetics of B. stearothermophi. (A=4.9x1037 min¹, E=67.48 kcal/mol, R=1.987 cal/mol K): Temperature, °C 120 121 125 130 Specific death rate The cumulative del factor constant k, min-¹ V 1.47 1.83 4.35 12.55 7.25 9.08 22.08 65.10 (i) The time taken for heating, cooling and holding periods in the sterilisation of a batch fermentor medium for the destruction of B. stearothermophilus were: time to heat from 100 to 121°C = 30 min time to cool from 121 to 100 °C = 16 min time of holding at 121 °C = 12 min Calculate the destruction ratio (No/N) for the process. (ii) If the sterilisation were to be carried out continuously at 130 °C, and the heating and cooling characteristics were: time to heat from 100 to 130 °C = 2 min time to cool from 130 to 100 °C = 1 min what holding time would be required to achieve the same ratio of (No/N) as in section (1) above? State all the assumptions made in your calculations.
