What is the concentration of the solute in the adsorption process in bioseparation engineering?

What is the concentration of the solute in the adsorption process in bioseparation engineering? Correct Answer 1000ppm

The concentration of the solute in the adsorption technique is less than 1000 ppm. At concentration above 1000ppm the purification should be in terms of chromatographic methods of purification.

In the question below, are given a passage followed by three courses of actions numbered I, II and III. On the basis of the information given, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and then decide which of the following suggested courses of actions logically follow(s) for pursuing. Passage: Many Engineering graduates in India ends up doing anything but Engineering jobs. Some switch to entirely unrelated fields of work like Finance or Arts but most of them are unemployed. A recent survey has highlighted that among the unemployed graduates, 66% are Engineers while only 10% of the Engineering graduates do Engineering jobs. Courses of action:  I. A law must be passed banning Engineering graduates from taking up other professions. II. The Government must appoint a committee to find out the reasons for these findings. III. A law must be passed to close all Engineering Colleges with less than 5% core job placement rate.
Phytase, an enzyme produced by Aspergillus niger can be adsorbed on microcrystalline cellulose powder (MCCP). The adsorption follows a Langmuir isotherm and the maximum concentration of the protein that can be obtained on the adsorbent is 70 mg cm-1. At a concentration of 50 mg L-1 of protein in the solution, the concentration of protein on the adsorbent reaches 35 mg cm-1. It is desired to recover 90% of the protein from 1.5 liter of the cell free culture filtrate containing 220 mg L-1 protein by addition of MCCP to the solution. The concentration of the protein adsorbed on the solid at equilibrium will be:
