Question

Growth of an organism on glucose in a chemostat is characterized by Monod model with specific growth rate = 0.45 11^-1 and Ks = 0.5 g/L. Biomass from the substrate is generated as Yxs = 0.4 g/g. The chemostat volume is 0.9 L and media is fed at 1 L/h and contains 20 g/L of glucose. At steady state, the concentration of biomass in the chemostat is ....... g/L.
