Determine the detention time in hours for the chemostat

Reference no: EM13559374

Perform a material balance on substrate (S) around a chemostat (completely mixed reactor without recycle) assuming a first-order removal for a substrate with a rate constant of 0.5 hr-1. The influent substrate concentration is 150 mg/L, and 90% removal is desired. Determine the detention time in hours for the chemostat, assuming steady-state conditions.
