(b) A Food material containing Bacillus stearothermophilus PS1518 as an indicator organism tssubjected to heat sterilization at 121 C. Calculate the time required to reduce the organism to onetenth of the original number. Fo value for the organism is 4 minutes and the decimal reductiontime , D, at 116°C is 40 minutes. Assume operation is at constant temperature of 121°C.HINTFo =-To10dtWhere Fo = equivalent exposure time at 121°C of the actual exposure time at a variabletemperatureTo = the reference temperature =121 C, z=10 = number ofC necessary for10fold increase in F

You are cultivating Escherichia coli in a chemostat culture. The maximum specific growth rate (µmax) of E. coli that you can reach is known as 1.0 h-1 at your culture conditions. Describe what you would observe for each condition if you have the following settings: F (flow rate of the fresh medium into the bioreactor vessel) (L/h) V (Volume of the liquid culture in the bioreactor vessel) (L) a) 1 1 b) 5 4 c) 1 2
As a public health engieer you have been tasked wiyh designing a plug flow reactor for the disinfection of Giardia lamblia using either free chlorine and monochloramine. The objective is a three log reduction in the concentration of Giardia lamblia. The kinetics of chlorine decay can be described by a first order coefficient of 0.1 d-1. It is also given that the appropriate contact time, t10, equals the hydrualic residence time (HRT or td) of the plug flow reactor. Question: At a temperature of 5oC and a pH of 7.0, what is the volume of the PFR if the flowrate of the water to be disinfected is 1000 L/d for chlorine and monochloramine Disinfection data in the table below can be used.
