Rotating Biological Contactors
• First introduced in Germany in 1960s• Became popular in US in 1970s.• Biological growth is attached to the surface of the disc and forms a slime layer. • The discs contact the wastewater with the atmospheric air for oxidation as it rotates.• The discs are submerged in waste water to about 40% of their diameter.• Initial use didn’t proved to be economically justifiable compared to its cost.

Motivation for Process Development• Tyagi et al (1992) made observations in the process involving
biodegradation of petroleum refinery wastewater in a polyurethane foam attached RBC revealed the ability of RBC to retain the considerable amounts of attached biomass, in conjugation with proper oxygen transfer rate environment.• The need to produce microbial cellulose in 1990s.• Conventional production methods proved to be difficult because of scaling up.uncontrollable foamingnecessity of intense washing or cooling

Conclusions and future work
• The Rotary Disc Reactors are an effective, yet still unexplored methodology for the production of cellular metabolites.• The production in RDB is affected by the design as well as the
operational parameter like rotational speed, air flow rate etc.• More research work is needed to be done for their more diverse
applications.
