- Bacterial production of alginate Azotobacter vinelandii is investigated for production of alginate from sucrose. In a continuous fermenter at 28°C with ammonia as nitrogen source, the yield of alginate was found to be 4 g g^−1 oxygen consumed. It is planned to produce alginate at a rate of 5 kg h^−1. Since the viscosity of alginate in aqueous solution is considerable, energy input due to mixing the broth cannot be neglected.

Calculate the cooling requirements.arrow_forwardPreheating nutrient medium Steam is used to heat nutrient medium in a continuous-flow process.
