Pseudomonas methylotrophus is used to produce single cell protein from methanol in a 1000-m3 pressure-cycle airlift fermenter. the biomass yield from substrate is 0.41 g g 1, ks is 0.7 mg l 1, and the maximum specific growth rate is 0.44 h 1. the medium contains 4% (w/v) methanol. a substrate conversion of 98% is desirable. the reactor may be operated in either batch or continuous mode. if operated in batch, an inoculum of 0.01% (w/v) is used and the downtime between batches is 20 h. if continuous operations are used at steady state, a downtime of 25 days is expected per year.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
