Glucose (C6H12O6) and ammonia form a sterile solution (no live cells) fed continuously into a vessel. Assume that glucose and ammonia are fed in stoichiometric proportions and that they react completely. One product formed from the reaction contains ethanol, cells (CH1.8O0.5N0.2 ), and water. The gas produced is CO2. If the reaction occurs an aerobically (without the presence of oxygen), what is the minimum amount in kilograms of feed (ammonia and glucose) required to produce 4.6 kg of ethanol? Only 60% of the moles of glucose are converted to ethanol. The remainder is converted to cell mass, carbon dioxide, and water.
We need at least 10 more requests to produce the solution.
