Notes:
A kinetic model has been presented to explain the growth of microorganism on solid hydrocarbons. The model is based on the assumption that metabolite produced by the growing cells helps the dissolution of the solid substrate in the aqueous medium. The linear behavior of the growth curve predicted by the model is verified experimentally.
