Rotating biological contactors: a review on main factors affecting performance
TL;DR: A review of RBCs focusing on parameters that affect performance like rotational speed, organic and hydraulic loading rates, retention time, biofilm support media, staging, temperature, influent wastewater characteristics, bio-film characteristics, dissolved oxygen levels, effluent and solids recirculation, step-feeding and medium submergence is presented in this article.

Kinetic of carbonaceous substrate in an upflow anaerobic sludge sludge blanket (UASB) reactor treating 2,4 dichlorophenol (2,4 DCP).
Delia Teresa Sponza,Ayşen Uluköy +1 more
TL;DR: The experimental data obtained from the kinetic models showed that the Monod kinetic model is more appropriate for correlating the substrate removals compared to the other models for the UASB reactor.
