In bioreactors,the growth is autocatalytic in that the more cells you have,the greater the growth rate.

In bioreactors,the growth is autocatalytic in that the more cells you have,the greater the growth rate.cell + nutrients = more cells + productsThe cell growth rate and the rate of nutrients consumption are directly proportional to the concentration of the cells for a given set of conditionsFor a nutrient feed rate of 1kg/h with Cso=0.25g/dm3 what chemostat (CSTR) size is necessary to achievea) 40% conversion of the substrate?b) 80% conversion of the substrate?c) What conversion could be achieved with 80dm3 CSTR? 80dm3 PFR?d) How could you arrange a CSTR and PFR in series to achieve 80% conversion with the minimum total volume? Repeat for two CSTR in series.
