Simple calculation for compounds lost by gas stripping in a two-phase liquid system involving dilute substances.
Compounds lost by gas stripping from a two-phase liquid system can be deduced from the slope of the logarithmic plot of the residual concentration in a given layer against time. This results in straight lines even when thermodynamic equilibrium is not reached, provided all phases belong to the diluted region. Partition coefficients were calculated during 2-heptanone reduction to 2-heptanol by Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
