A chemostat is operated at a dilution rate of 0.6 h–1. At steady state, the biomass concentration in the exit stream was found to be 30 g l–1. The biomass productivity (g l–1h–1) after 3h of steady state operation will be ______
-
- 9
- 38
- 18
- 58
Correct Option: C
Given, Biomass concentration in the exit stream = 30 g/L
Dilution rate of the chemostat = 0.6 h-1
Therefore, Biomass productivity of the chemostat = 30 × 0.6 gL–1h–1 = 18 gL-1h-1
