Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The transfer function which relates tank temperature to the inlet liquid temperature is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

For chemical processes, dynamic models consisting ordinary differential equations are derived through unsteady-state conservation laws. These laws generally include mass and energy balances.

The process models generally include algebraic relationships which commence from thermodynamics, transport phenomena, chemical kinetics, and physical properties of the processes.

The difference in the actual variable (y) and the original variable (y¯) is known as deviation variable (y). It is generally used while modelling a process. Mathematically it is defined as:

y=yy¯

In steady-state process, the accumulation in the process is taken as zero.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The steady-state gain for the transfer function determined in part (a) is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

In any steady state, the ratio of the amplitude of input signal to the amplitude of the amplifier output is known as steady-state gain. This gain will be same for the entire input range if the amplifier output is linear. For a transfer function, steady-state gain occurs as times tends to infinity which means that in s-domain, this infinite time is represented by s0.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

It is to be determined if the steady-state gain calculated in part (b) can be unity based on the physical arguments only.

Concept introduction:

In any steady state, the ratio of the amplitude of input signal to the amplitude of the amplifier output is known as steady-state gain. This gain will be same for the entire input range if the amplifier output is linear. For a transfer function, steady-state gain occurs as times tends to infinity which means that in s-domain, this infinite time is represented by s0.

2. A moving bed adsorption column needs to be designed to separate hydrophobic proteins from a fermentation broth. The following adsorption equilibrium data was observed in preliminary isotherm studies. The resin used was activated carbon with a porosity of 0.2. The overall mass transfer coefficient was determined to be 10 h¹, and the ratio of volumetric flow rate of broth to resin is 10. Determine the diameter of the column if the column height is limited to 2.5 m (indoor operation) with a flow rate of 20 m³/h, influent concentration of 7 g/L, and effluent concentration of 0.1 g/L. qi (mg/kg) Ci (g/L) 0.1 4.7 7.5 0.25 10.6 0.5 15.0 1.0 23.7 2.5 33.5 5.0 41.1 7.5
3. You are given a mixture of four proteins, whose properties are listed in the table below. Propose a process to purify each protein so that you end up with four solutions of pure protein. What resin would you use to bind the protein(s)? What changes to the buffer would you make to desorb the protein(s)? Contains an N-terminal His6-tag. Two 50 kDa subunits contain a non-heme Fe2+ in the active site. Protein Size (kDa) pl Specific Properties A 100 6.0 B 40 7.7 C 240 8.3 Ꭰ 225 5.5 Contains FAD redox center and an NADH binding domain. Composed of six 40-kDa subunits, each of which contains a [2Fe-2S] cluster. Composed of three subunits: 100 kDa structural subunit, 75 kDa subunit with a molybdopterin center, and 50 kDa subunit with FAD and an NADH binding domain.
