Abstract

This paper presents the matlab implementation details of a novel semi-structured kinetic model for methanotroph-photoautotroph cocultures. This includes the parameterization of the modeling equations, and the initialization of the simulation based on experimental conditions. More importantly, it provides details on how the differential equations governing mass balances in both gas and liquid phases are integrated together to simulate the system dynamics over time. The semi-structured kinetic model for methanotroph-photoautotroph coculture is validated using a wide range of experimental conditions. The model:•Accurately predicts both the coculture growth in liquid phase and the gas composition changes in head space over time.•Explicitly models the exchange of in situ produced O2 and CO2 within the coculture.•Considers the self-shading effect on the growth of photoautotroph.
