Question

2.) Determine the theoretical oxygen demand for the amino acids glycine and leucine using the formula discussed here. Theoretical oxygen demand (ThOD) for a nutrient source (CcHhOoNn) is calculated by the below equation: c + (h - 3n)/4 - o/2 = ThOD [mol O2/mol substrate] Convert to g O2 per g substrate by multiplying by molar mass of the substrate (in this case, glycine and leucine) and dividing by the molar mass of O2 (32 g/mol). Calculate ThOD in units of g O2 per g substrate for both glycine and leucine. 3.) Based on your answer to Q2 and the constraints mentioned above, would a wastewater feed containing either only glycine or only leucine need a nitrogen supplement? Assume a basis of 100 g oxygen demand of amino acid.
