Civilised man is perpetually tired, stress-prone, cigarette-smoking, paan and tobacco chewing, Scotch-consuming, antacid-taking, tranquilliser-swallowing, purgative-dependent, and often minus his tonsils and appendix. Cervical spondylosis or a duodenal ulcer or raised blood pressure are additional qualifications for the presidentship of a transnational You will naturally want to know : ‘How do I protect myself against stress, modem life-style and environment pollution?’Let us start by redefining health as ‘a state of harmonious integration of mind, body and spirit of a person within himself and within his society.’ In other words, holistic health (‘holos’ in Greek means whole).In holistic health, the emphasis is on prevention. For example, a person does not wait to have a heart attack. Instead, he looks after himself with periodic check-ups, lives sensibly and exercises regularly to prevent such a catastrophe. This is in complete contrast to the conventional concept of medical care which equates health with illness care. The individual sits tight until he is unwell. His attitude is : ‘Why should I worry when modem medicines and surgery can right my ills?’ To cap it all, he delegates the responsibility of getting well entirely to his doctors.Let me illustrate with two case histories.Ramesh smokes 30 cigarettes and drinks a quarter bottle of Scotch a day, in 20 kilos overweight and has a heart attack to his credit. ‘You doctors will perfect a pill or an artificial heart within the next five years, so why should I bother? I can have a coronary by-pass or a plastic ticker!’ he tells me when I complain to him about his weight and his life-style.Twenty-nine-year-old Usha, a professor of history, suffered from repeated urinary tract infections. ‘I don’t like drugs and I hate to drink water,’ she says, ‘If my kidneys stop functioning I can have a transplant.’Questions :1. How does the author delineate the civilized man?2. What, according to the author, is health?3. What is holistic health?4. What is the conventional concept of medical care?5. How is Ramesh neglecting his health?6. Which organ remove waste product from the blood and produce urine?7. From which disease did Usha suffer?8.

The rising tube and the down coming tubes are the features of which type of fermenters?(a) Bubble column(b) Air-lift(c) Packed bed(d) Fluidized bed

Answer» The correct choice is (b) Air-lift

To explain: There are two types of air-lift fermenters which are the internal loop and the external loop. The internal loop has a draft tube in its inner tube, in which the up-flowing gasses liquid and the down-flowing liquid is separated by the draft tube. Draft tubes are used in some processes to promote better mass transfer, mixing and inducing circulatory motion to reduce bubble coalescence. The external loop has two streams flow in two separate pipes connected at top and bottom. In this way, the air-lift fermenters improve the circulation and oxygen transfer and equalize shear forces in the reactor.
