Integration : coupled DE, Gluconic acid fermentation

12-02-2025

Dry cell weight=DCW, Glucose=Glu, Glucono-δ-lactone=GDL, Gluconic Acid=GA

  1. DCW0=0.1, Glu0=50.0, GDL0=0.0, GA0=0.0 ( initial conditions)

  2. μmax=0.53 (maximum growth rate), Ks=3.5 ( Monod constant), Ysx=0.1 ( yield DCW on Glu), ms=0.03 (maintenance of biomass on glucose)

  3. α=8.88, β=0.031, k1=0.66
  4. δDCW=μmax*DCW*Glu/(Ks+Glu) , δGlu=δDCW/Ysx+ms/DCW, δGDL=α*δDCW+β*DCW-δGA , δGA=k1*GDL
  5. DCW'=δDCW, Glu'=-δGlu, GDL'=δGDL, GA'=δGA
