MICROBIOLOGICAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 28.1 : (a) Dilution = (final volume of mixture) / (initial volume of mixture). First dilution = ( 0.2 + 1.8 ) L / (0.2 L) = 10. Second dilution = first dilution x ( 0.2 + 1.8 ) L / (0.2 L) = 10 x 10 = 100. (b) 100 microlitres = 100 microlitres x 1 mL / (1000 microlitres) = 0.1 mL. CFU / mL = (number of colonies x dilution) / (amount plated, in unit mL). In the first plate, CFU / mL = 250 x 10 / 0.1 = 25000. In the second plate, CFU / mL = 23 x 100 / 0.1 = 23000. Average CFU / mL = (first plated value + second plated value) / 2 = (25000 + 23000) / 2 = 24000.

We are having proplem with the persperation smell in ETT/ECHO room in our cardiac hospital.The 2 Ton of AC is not conditioning the environment. We have to use exhaust fan to through out of the room bad air. Could anyone suggest how to coup with this effectively using chemical engineering. Any permanent solution to neutralise the bad smell.The Air freshners are not doing enough instead making a bad odour.

Two methanol-water mixtures are contained in separate tanks. The first mixture contains 40.0 wt % methanol and the second contains 70.0 wt % methanol. If 200 kg of the first mixture is combined with 150 kg of the second, what are the mass and composition of the product? The symbol of weight percent is wt %.

PROCESS CONTROL - EXAMPLE 6.2 : A stream with volumetric flow rate Q enters a cylindrical tank and a stream with volumetric flow rate q exits the tank. The fluid has a constant heat capacity and density. There is no temperature change or chemical reaction occurring in the tank. Develop a model for determining the height of the tank, h. Let V is the volume, A is the cross sectional area, r is the density, m is the mass, where V and A are for the tank, r and m are for the fluid. The rate of mass of fluid accumulation, dm / dt = (Q - q) r. Prove the model to be dh / dt = (Q - q) / A.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.20 : Assume an engineer buys a $1 bond in period T while the nominal interest rate is R. The inflation rate at T + 1 is anticipated to be I. (a) If the bond is redeemed in period T + 1, how much money will the buyer engineer receive, in term of R, which is not affected by inflation? (b) Find the present value, PV of the proceeds from the bond, in term of R and I. (c) If the bond is redeemed in period T + 1, calculate the real growth or real value of the money that the buyer engineer will receive, in term of r = real interest rate, which is affected by inflation. (d) From the answers in (b) and (c), find the values of x, y and z in the following Fisher equation : (1 + x) = (1 + y) / (1 + z), in term of r, R and I.

CHEMICAL MATERIAL BALANCE – EXAMPLE 2.6 : According to Raoult's law for ideal liquid, x (PSAT) = yP where x is mole fraction of component in liquid, y is mole fraction of component in vapor, P is overall pressure and PSAT is saturation pressure. A liquid with 60 mole % component 1 and 40 mole % component 2 is flashed to 1210 kPa. The saturation pressure for component 1 is ln (PSAT) = 15 - 3010 / (T + 250) and for component 2 is ln (PSAT) = 14 - 2700 / (T + 205) where PSAT is in kPa and T is in degree Celsius. By assuming the liquid is ideal, calculate (a) the fraction of the effluent that is liquid; (b) the compositions of the liquid and vapor phases. The outlet T is 150 degree Celsius.
