(b) 8 L/h

(c) 8 mL/h

(d) 10 L/h

I got this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.

My doubt is from Fermentation Laboratory topic in division Equipping a Fermentation Laboratory, the Design and Preparation of Media for Bioprocesses of Fermentation Technology

Answer 1

Correct option is (d) 10 L/h

Explanation: The flow rate of Haraeus continuous flow centrifuge is 10 L/h. It has a smaller capacity but gives excellent clarity of supernatant. This machine cannot be used for cultures above 10 L volume because of low flow rates.
