| Abstract | Synthetic wastewaters were prepared with different influent concentrations of ammonia nitrogen (NH3–N) and COD and the treatment studies were conducted using a rotating biological contactor (RBC). If organic removal and nitrification can be simultaneously effected in one process, it will be an ideal solution to water pollution control. The RBC used in the present study was a four stage laboratory model and the discs were modified by attaching porous netlon sheets to enhance biofilm area. The COD loads (S 0) used were about 1000 and 1500 mg/l whereas NH3–N concentrations used were in the range of 20 to 185 mg/l. Hydraulic load (q) of 0.03 m3 . m-2 . d-1 and ammonia nitrogen loadings in the range of 0.66 to 5.5 g NH3–N . m-2 . d-1 were used. The RBC was operated at two different rotating speeds of 6 and 12 rpm. The results showed that the nitrification and percentage of COD removal were not affected up to the value of the COD/NH3–N in the range from 47 to 23 at w=6 rpm and for an average influent COD of 1003 mg/l. Beyond that range only the nitrification rate decreased much whereas the percentage of COD removal was not affected. Similarly, at an influent COD load of 1557 mg/l, the nitrification and percentage COD removal were not affected for the value of the COD/NH3–N in the range from 44 to 23 but beyond that range only the nitrification rate decreased while the percentage of COD removal was approximately constant and still high. A correlation plot between the NH3–N removed and NH3–N applied was presented at a rotating speed of 6 rpm and it was found that the nitrification rate of 3.93 g NH3–N . m-2 . d-1 was achieved at ammonia loading of 5.55 g NH3–N . m-2 . d-1. Also the results at w=12 rpm showed improvement of nitrification rate over those at 6 rpm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
