Which Substrate is consumed rapidly in fermentation process?

Which Substrate is consumed rapidly in fermentation process? Correct Answer Glucose

Choice of substrate for the fermentation can also significantly affect oxygen demand. Because glucose is generally consumed more rapidly than other sugars or carbon-containing substrates, rates of oxygen demand are higher when glucose is used. For example, maximum oxygen-consumption rates of 5.5, 6.1 and 12 mmol l-1 h-1 have been observed for Penicillium mould growing on lactose, sucrose and glucose, respectively.

Consider the growth of a microorganism in batch culture. When the substrate concentration is high, the cell density doubles every 0.75 h, the observed substrate yield coefficient is 0.3 g DCW/g, and substrate consumption is allocated towards biosynthesis (60%), maintenance (10%), as well as product formation (30%). The product formation is strictly growth-associated. The batch reactor is inoculated with 0.01 g DCW/L and 10 g/L substrate. Estimate the maximum cell density (after lag phase).

Disposals dipers while a convenience are an environmental disaster. If people would use cloth dipers instead of thosr of disposals paper, mush less paper would be produced saving millions of trees each year. Therefore people should go back to buying washing and resing cloth dipers and Earth's precious natural resources would not be consumed so rapidly. This argument depends of which of the following assumptions ?
