The ventilation rate in the cellar is decreased to 0.05 ACH in an experiment to see what concentration of ethylene will occur. Ethylene, which stimulates ripening, is being released at a rate of 7µg/hr by apples stored in the cellar. What is the steady-state ethylene concentration?
Steady state of ethylene= 0.05*7
= 0.35
