The oxygen requirement for cell growth in glucose can be represented by the following equation (Mateles, 1971) ro2 32Nc+8(Nh2)+16(No2) Yx/sM +yo2 – 2.67yc + 1.714yN2 – 8y H2 In which ro2 is the oxygen required for each gram of cells produced, N stands for no. of atoms present in each molecule substrate, y stands for mass fractions and M is the MW of the substrate. The yeast cell may be considered to be CH1.800.5NO.2. Calculate rO2 if the yield factor (Yx/s) is 0.46g of cells produced for each gram of substrate consumed.

Example 14.6
The oxygen requirement for cell growth in glueose can be represented by the following
equation (Mateles, 1971)
32NC+8(Nh2)+16(No2)
Fx/sM
+yo2 – 2.67yc + 1.714YN2 – 8y H2
ro2 =
In which ro2 is the oxygen required for each gram of cells produced, N stands for no. of
atoms present in each molecule substrate, y stands for mass fractions and M is the MW of
the substrate. The yeast cell may be considered to be CH1.800.5NO.2. Calculate rO2 if the
yield factor (Yx/s) is 0.46g of cells produced for each gram of substrate consumed.
