The fungal species Penicillium chrysogenum producing antibiotics in a fermenter generate 27.6 kJ/L per hour. The volume of the well-insulated fermenter is 2 L. The feed temperature is 25C and the exit temperature is equal to the reactor temperature. Penicillium chrysogenum cannot grow above 42C. Assume: Heat capacity of all streams = 4 J/g-C Mass flow rates (in and out) are constant = 1025 g/hr a) What is the temperature of the fermenter? Will the cells survive? b) At what rate (g/hr) is glucose being consumed to generate this heat? Assume that glucose is consumed aerobically (completely oxidized by O2 to CO2 and water (liquid)).
