Figure 8.44 Concentration in pore gases in the layers as a function of time.EXERCISE PROBLEMS8.1. Refer to Exercise Problem 5.1. Solve the coupled differential equationsderived in that problem using the following biokinetic data: µ max = 0.3hr –1 , k d = k r = 0.01 hr –1 , Y = 0.45 gr cells/gr C in substrate, <strong>and</strong> K s = 150mg/L. Hence, plot the temporal variation of biomass <strong>and</strong> substrate.Assume that the initial concentrations of biomass <strong>and</strong> substrate are5 mg/L as C <strong>and</strong> 1000 mg/L as C, respectively.8.2. Refer to Exercise Problem 5.2. Solve the coupled differential equationsderived in that problem using the same biokinetic data in ExerciseProblem 8.1 <strong>for</strong> three different hydraulic retention times (HRT) of 5 hr,10 hr, <strong>and</strong> 20 hr. Hence, plot the temporal variation of biomass <strong>and</strong> substrate<strong>for</strong> each HRT.Use the following additional data: V = 10 L; S in = 1000 mg/L as C; <strong>and</strong>initial concentrations of biomass <strong>and</strong> substrate in the reactor are5 mg/L <strong>and</strong> 0 mg/L as C, respectively.© 2002 by CRC Press LLC
