Effluent Substrate Concentration given Volume of Reactor Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Effluent Substrate Concentration given Volume of Reactor?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
S=So-(VXa(1+(kdθc))θcQaY)
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
S=25mg/L-(10002500mg/L(1+(0.05d⁻¹7d))7d1.2m³/d0.5)
Next Step Convert Units
S=25mg/L-(10002500mg/L(1+(5.8E-7s⁻¹604800s))604800s1.2m³/d0.5)
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
S=25-(10002500(1+(5.8E-7604800))6048001.20.5)
Next Step Evaluate
S=0.0156994047619048kg/m³
Next Step Convert to Output's Unit
S=15.6994047619048mg/L
LAST Step Rounding Answer
S=15.6994mg/L
