A fermentor is fed at hr with a sterile substrate. In the absence of outlet flow, the volume in the batch-fed fermentor will increase linearly. This Demonstration shows the time-dependent behavior of four functions: the biomass concentration, the substrate concentration, the product concentration, and the volume in the reactor.
