Available growth kinetic models and a combined growth kinetic and mass transport model were applied to describe the performance of bench-scale rotating biological contactors (RBCs) in treating low-BOD, high-ammonia landfill leachate. The growth kinetic models could describe the observed organic carbon and ammonia removals individually, but as currently formulated they are not capable of describing the simultaneous removal of multiple substrates. Moreover, these models assume that substrate removal is not oxygen limited, an assumption that renders them of little use for prediction of substrate removal under high loading conditions where oxygen deficiency may occur. Such conditions occurred in the first stages of the bench-scale RBC units as has been observed at full-scale in various wastewater treatment applications.
