Direction: During sterilization of a fermentation medium in a given bioreactor ∇heating = 12.56, ∇cooling = 7.48 and the total value of ∇ required for whole sterilization process is 52, where ∇ is the design criteria.

What is the value of ∇holding?
-
- 31.96
- 42.32
- 52.43
- 61.18
Correct Option: A
Given, ∇heating = 12.56, ∇cooling = 7.48
Now we have, ∇total = ∇heating + ∇cooling + ∇holding
⇒ 52 = 12.56 + 7.48 + ∇holding
⇒ ∇holding = 31.96
