Q1:

The oxygen uptake requirements of a microbial population is characterized by the following parameters: μ= 0.2 h-1K0 = 0.2 mg O2.l-1Y0 = 0.5 mg dry weight/mg O2 and C0,crit=0.8 mg.l-1 The required concentration of cells is 1000 mg.l-1 and the saturation oxygen concentration of the medium is 5.8 mg.l-1. The required KLa must be greater than

A 64 h-1
