GENERATION OF BIOELECTRICITY FROM ANAEROBIC BACTERIA

Every year the global energy demand increases. Approximately 86% of the world energy production comes from fossil fuels. Fossil fuels especially petroleum. Coals are being exhausted; leading to an energy crisis in the near future. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is an alternative source of energy. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are an approach that uses microbes as a biocatalyst and changes the chemical energy deposited in chemical compounds into electrical energy. MFC represents a new form of renewable energy by generating bioelectricity in the process of wastewater treatment.

how to calculate kla, mixing time for mammalian cell culture like cho cell line

The volumetric mass transfer coefficient (Kla) and mixing time are important parameters in the design and optimization of bioreactors for mammalian cell culture, such as CHO cell lines. To calculate Kla, one common method is to use the dynamic gassing-out method. In this method, a known volume of gas is injected into the bioreactor, and the rate of oxygen consumption by the cells is measured over time. The Kla can then be calculated using the following equation: Kla = (d(DO) / dt) / (C*(S-X)) Where d(DO)/dt is the rate of oxygen consumption, C is the oxygen solubility in the liquid, S is the oxygen saturation concentration, and X is the dissolved oxygen concentration in the liquid. To calculate mixing time, one common method is to use the "tracer response method". In this method, a small amount of a non-toxic tracer, such as fluorescein, is added to the bioreactor. The mixing time can then be calculated as the time taken for the tracer to be homogeneously distributed ...

what is PID in bioreactor how to calculate

PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control is a control loop feedback mechanism used to regulate the temperature, pH, and other process variables in a bioreactor. It is commonly used in the control systems of bioreactors to maintain a steady state and avoid large fluctuations in the process variables. The PID controller calculates the error between the desired set point and the current process variable and then generates a correction signal to adjust the process. The correction signal is generated by combining three control terms: Proportional control: This term generates a correction signal that is proportional to the error between the set point and the current process variable. The proportionality constant is known as the proportional gain (Kp). Integral control: This term generates a correction signal that is proportional to the integral of the error over time. The integral gain (Ki) is used to adjust this term. Derivative control: This term generates a correction signal...
