A continuous culture system is being constructed. The fermentation tank is to be 50,000 l in
size and the residence time is to be 2 h. A continuous sterilizer is to be used. The unsterilized
medium contains
spores/l. The value of
has been determined to be
at 121∞C
and
at 140∞C. For each temperature (121∞C and 140∞C), determine the required res-
idence time in the holding section so as to ensure that 99% of the time four weeks of continu-
ous operation can be obtained without contamination (due to contaminants in the liquid
medium).
