Who discovered the citric acid cycle?

Who discovered the citric acid cycle? Correct Answer Hans Krebs

Citric acid cycle was discovered by Sir Hans Adolf Krebs and these studies were performed in the breast muscle of pigeon as the breast muscle was a powerful muscle for flight and the oxidative capacity of the breast muscle was maintained even after its disruption and suspension in aqueous media. It is also called a Krebs’ cycle.

In a batch process, the reaction takes place in the presence of an acid medium. The acid is drained from the reaction vessel at the rate of 15ml/s as a result of the density difference of the acid from the reacting component. To avoid wastage of acid, it is recycled to an acid tank which has 1000 L capacity. The acid drained from the reaction vessel, picks up 50 g/L solids from the reactor. Acid is fed once again to the process from acid tank. When the process is started, the acid is almost pure in the tank as a result of filtration. As the reaction proceeds, acid in the tank gets more and more contaminated with the solids. The concentration of the solids should not exceed 100 g/L from the process point of view. The batch time is 16h. Estimate whether the concentration of the solids will exceed 100g/L during the batch reaction.
