Q1:

What is the effect of the concentration of dissolved salts and sugars on the oxygen transfer rate?

A The saturation concentration of oxygen in the medium decreases with the concentration of dissolved salts and sugars, leading to a lower oxygen transfer rate

B The KLa of the medium decreases with the concentration of dissolved salts and sugars, leading to a lower oxygen transfer rate

C The KLa of the medium increases with the concentration of dissolved salts and sugars, leading to a lower oxygen transfer rate

D None of the above

ANS:A - The saturation concentration of oxygen in the medium decreases with the concentration of dissolved salts and sugars, leading to a lower oxygen transfer rate
