A fermentation broth with a protein concentration of
and flow rate of
is passed through two downflow adsorption columns connected in series. The
adsorption isotherm is:
Assuming the system is in equilibrium, calculate the
following:
a. Minimum amount of activated carbon required for two days of operation if removal effi-
ciency for the column is E = 50%.
b. Protein concentration in the effluent of the second column is desired to be C = 0.5 mg/L.
Determine the minimum amount of activated carbon required for two days of operation.
