Question
Chapter 25, Problem 11CT
Summary Introduction
To answer:
The process that would yield more product from the same sized vats over the same amount of time: batch production or continuous flow production and why.
Introduction:
Batch culture is also called as a closed culture in which limited substrate is added to the growth of organism inside the fermenter. While continuous culture is also called as an open culture, in which substrates are continuously supplied for the growth of microorganisms.

You are asked to determine the settleability of biomass in a suspended growth activated sludge sample
that was brought to the laboratory. Describe the protocol you follow to achieve the objective. (If you prefer
it, you can use your own numerical example to illustrate the process). Use drawings if you like to illustrate
your point(s).
