Tetrahymena thermophila protozoa have a minimum doubling time of 6.5 hours when grown using bacteria as the limiting substrate. The yield of protozoal biomass is 0.33 g per g of bacteria and the substrate constant is 12 mg/ l. The protozoa are cultured at steady state in a chemostat using a feed stream containing 10 g/ l of nonviable bacteria. What is the maximum dilution rate for operation of the chemostat?

Apiping systems consists of 6 m of 6-std type k and 12 m of 4-std type k, both drawn copper tubing. the system conveys ethylene glycol at a rate of 0.013 m3/s. the pressure drop across the system is to be calculated. there are two 90° elbows in the 6-in pipe, a reduction from the 6-in pipe to the 4-in pipe and four 90° elbows in the 4-in pipe. all fittings are soldered (same as flanged) and regular. the inlet and outlet of the system are at the same height.
