Dynamic metabolic modeling of heterotrophic and mixotrophic microalgal growth on fermentative wastes
Fig 3
Comparison between the model and experimental data for Chlorella sorokiniana heterotrophic growth mixtures of acetate and butyrate.
Simulations are represented by full lines (conditions used for calibration) or dashed lines (conditions used for validation). Experimental results are represented by large dots, triangles or diamonds. Red: acetate (gC.L-1); blue: butyrate (gC.L-1); yellow: biomass (g.L-1). A. Growth on 0.25 gC.L-1 acetate and 0.25 gC.L-1 butyrate. B. Growth on 0.25 gC.L-1 acetate and 0.5 gC.L-1 butyrate. C. Growth on 0.4 gC.L-1 acetate and 0.1 gC.L-1 butyrate. D. Growth on 0.5 gC.L-1 acetate and 0.9 gC.L-1 butyrate. E. Growth on 0.9 gC.L-1 acetate and 0.1 gC.L-1 butyrate. Only one of the experimental triplicates is represented here. The simulations for all triplicates are available in S5 Fig.
