9.5 Comparison of Three Scale-up Methods for a Crystallization A batch crystal- lization of an antibiotic was performed using a volume of 750 ml in the laboratory with a 3.5 cm diameter impeller at a speed of 600 rpm, the minimum speed required to fully suspend the crystals. Estimate the size of the impeller and the impeller speed for scale-up to 250 liters for each of the following three assumptions as a basis for scale-up: (1) constant power per volume, (2) constant impeller tip speed, and (3) full suspension of crystals (at minimum speed).
8.3 Fractionation of a Protein Solution Four proteins are dissolved in solution. The constants in the Cohn equation (see Example 8.1) for the proteins are given in Table P8.3 along with the concentration of each protein in solution. Assume that the Cohn equation constants are valid when other proteins are present. (a) Determine the maximum percentage recovery of protein 4 that can be obtained if it is desired to obtain a precipitate containing 100% protein 4. (b) Determine the maximum percentage recovery of protein 3 that can be obtained if it is desired to obtain a mother liquor containing 99% protein 3. TABLE P8.3 Protein β K(M-1) Concentration (g/liter) 1 6.30 2.84 0.3 234 10.20 4.34 0.4 8.60 2.48 5.0 8.00 3.97 10.0
