g) Observed yield of cells on light

rXU
Observed yield YXL.obs := YXL.obs = 0.036
−rLU.AV

h) Theoretical yield of cells on light

μMAX 1 YXL.obs
Theoretical yield YXL := ⋅ YXL = 0.12 = 0.297
ε IMAX YXL

i) Required hydraulic residence time

Cell balance (
0 = −DL⋅ CX + μAV − kD ⋅ CX )
−6 DL
Dilution rate DL := μAV − kD DL = 4.0 × 10 = 0.132
μMAX
1 5 τ τ
Hydraulic retention time τ := τ = 2.526 × 10 = 70.2 = 2.9
DL 3600 3600⋅ 24
