2.a) Discuss the ‘Dynamic Method’ for measuring the mass transfer
coefficient (KLa).
b) A fermenter containing bacterial culture used for the production of
an organic acid. Air flow is shut off for a few minutes and the
dissolved oxygen level drops. The air supply is then reconnected.
When steady state is established, the dissolved oxygen tension is
82% air saturation and the following results are observed.
Time (s) 10 25
Oxygen tension
( % air saturation) 60 73
With the given data, estimate the KLa using dynamic method.
