Protein and other biomolecules present special challenges for separation. One method for partial purification of proteins from cell extracts is ultrafiltration. Ultrafiltration membranes have pores that separate molecules by molecular weight, but the separation is not perfect. In this process, a batch ultrafiltration operation is performed to partially purify recombinant human DNase (rhDNase) protein from small-molecule contaminants.

A feed stream contains rhDNase (P), contaminants (C) and water (W); the mass fraction of rhDNase in this stream is 0.1%; the mass ratio of contaminants to rhDNase is 4:1. A diluent stream containing only water is added to the feed. The retentate consists of rhDNase, contaminants and water that do not pass through the filter; water makes up 99.8 mass% of the retentate and contaminants are observed to make up 50% of the dry mass. The permeate stream consists of contaminants and water that have passed through the filter; essentially no rhDNase is present. The unit is controlled such that the permeate is twice the mass of the retentate.

Develop a flowsheet for a 1000 kg feed and determine the total masses and the masses of each component in each stream. Look up any terms you do not understand.

Batch and continuous biomass production Pseudomonas methylotrophus is used to produce single cell protein from methanol in a 1000-m pressure-cycle airlift fermenter. The biomass yield from substrate is 0.41 gg-, Ks is 0.7 mg 1", and the maximum specific growth rate is 0.44 h. The medium contains 4% (w/v) methanol. A substrate conversion of 98% is desirable. The reactor may be operated in either batch or continuous mode. If operated in batch, an inoculum of 0.01% (w/v) is used and the downtime between batches is 20 h. If continuous operations are used at steady state, a downtime of 25 days is expected per year. Neglecting maintenance requirements, compare the annual biomass production achieved using batch and continuous reactor

Consider a regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater heaters, a closed one and an open one, and reheat. Steam enters the first turbine stage at 12 MPa, 480°C, and expands to 2 MPa. Some steam is extracted at 2 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater heater. The remainder is reheated at 2 MPa to 440°C and then expands through the second-stage turbine to 0.3 MPa, where an additional amount is extracted and fed into the open feedwater heater operating at 0.3 MPa.

The steam expanding through the third-stage turbine exits at the condenser pressure of 20 kPa. Feedwater leaves the closed heater at 210°C, 12 MPa, and condensate exiting as saturated liquid at 2 MPa is trapped into the open feedwater heater. Saturated liquid at 0.3 MPa leaves the open feedwater heater. Assume all pumps and turbine stages operate isentropically.

Determine for the cycle:

(a) the heat transfer to the working fluid passing through the steam generator, in kJ per kg of steam entering the turbine.

(b) the percent thermal efficiency.

(c) the heat transfer from the working fluid passing through the condenser to the cooling water, in kJ per kg of steam entering the first-stage turbine.
