Config → Redox Couples... Decouple redox pairs for electron donating and accepting half reactions.
e− donor e− acceptor Enter initial fluid composition including electron donating and accepting species.
“add” → Fixed→ pH “add” → Kinetic → Microbial reaction Go to the Reactants pane to add additional reactants, fix compositions, and enable microbial kinetics.
Enter microbial reaction and kinetic parameters. Enter thermodynamic constraints including ATP energy, ATP number, and reaction order.
Reaction halts after 40 hours despite the presence of appreciable substrate concentrations.
Reaction proceeds uninhibited initially but rate slows, primarily due to thermodynamic limitations.
