hi,

fermenter is generally used for wine and beer and other products like penicillin,acetone,citric acid etc. before a batch starts fermenter need to be sterilized to kill all unwanted bacteria. steam can provide cell disrupting temperature at 121 c temperature and 15 lbs pressure.that's why steam passed through the fermenter and it takes long to cool fermenter that's why cool water passed.

What was wrong with Newcomen's steam engine before James Watt improved it?

The steam cylinder was heated by steam then cooled to condense the steam. This caused thermal stress and cracking. James Watt corrected that with a separate condenser, allowing the cylinder to remain hot.

When did steam train get inveted?

The steam engine, the use of steam has been percolating since old Chinese days of a toylike device filled with water and pipes coming out of its sides hung over a candle spinning like a top. Time enough man gets ideas how to use this and technology advances by the addition of ideas, technical capabilities, and trial and error. A crude steam device was built to pump water out of coal mines. The late 1700's a crude steam locomotive was invented and the first railroads started in the early 1800's with the first early steam engines, and it slowly grows from there. There is no one -definitive- date of a steam train being invented, but it sounds like the start of the application of a "steam locomotive" may have started about the late 1700's. The start of the modern steam era was about 1911 onward where the super power designs were just getting into its start and peaks around world war 2, the start of the diesel locomotive development started the slow demise of the steam locomotive and by around 1960 most railroads had ended mainline steam use. Museums and historical societies today still keep the steam locomotive alive that you can ride behind a real live steam engine still.


How long did it take to make the railway?

Steam trains varied in length due to the length of the passenger carriages that they were coupled to. Usually they didnt exceed the length of the platform.

Why liquid water changing into steam is a physical not a chemical change?

The steam when cooled changes back to liquid water. A chemical change is usually not so reversible.

When steam is cooled in the air you can see it condensing What process is that?

When steam is cooled in the air, you can see it condensing into a mist. This process is called condensation.


What you get when steam is cooled?

Condensation and liquid water result from cooling steam.


When steam is cooled in the air you can see it condensing what is that called?

When steam is cooled in the air it creates water vapor. This water vapor comes together to create clouds and fog.

Does steam as it cooled does it evaporate to form water vapour?

If the steam is transformed in a liquid this liquid can be evatporated again.


What happens to particles in steam when cooled?

When steam is cooled, its particles lose energy and slow down. As a result, the steam condenses back into water vapor or liquid water. The particles move closer together due to the decrease in thermal energy.


When water turns into steam is it a chemical change?

no, physical. The steam can return to water if cooled. Chemical changes are irreversible.


What is the effect of dry steam entry in to a wet steam filled vessel whether it promotes condensation in the vessel?

When dry steam enters a wet steam filled vessel, it can cause the wet steam to condense as the dry steam releases its latent heat energy to the surrounding wet steam. This condensation increases the moisture content in the vessel and may lead to water accumulation.


What happens to the steam after it has passed through the turbines?

It is cooled to liquid and fed back into the boiler for reheating.


What happens if steam is subjected to electric arc?

In the case of arc welding , moisture is superheated to steam , then further into Hydrogen and oxygen gasses, this usually produces a porous inferior weld, as the gasses are infused into the molten metal , and expand to form small voids , or pockets in the final cooled weld.
