C6H12O6 (Glucose) + 3/202 + NH3 (ammonia) -> CsH9NO4 + CO2 +3H20 The production of glutamic acid via this reaction occurs in many of your cells. If placed in a bioreactor and conditions optimized, mammalian cells can convert glucose to glutamic acid. Assume a simple bioreactor system that contains these cells. The inlet flow rate of glucose is 1.00x102 mole/day. NH3 is delivered at a rate of 1.20x102 mole/day. O2 is provided such that 1.10x102 mole/day are dissolved in liquid (and accessible to the cells for uptake). Assume that the reaction goes to completion. a. Write down the differential mass accounting for the reaction above. b. Determine the limiting reactant. C. Calculate the molar and mass flow rates of all constituents leaving the bioreactor including the products and the excess reactants. [Molecular Masses: C: 12 g/mole; N=14 g/mole; O = 16 g/mole; H: 1 g/mole) =
