In this study, biological production of fumaric acid by Rhizopus oryzae KCTC 6946 using rotary biofilm contactor was investigated. In study of neutralizing agent on fumaric acid production, $Na_2CO_3$ was more effective than NaOH. After 24 hr of incubation with a rotating speed of 10 rpm at $35^{\circ}C$, biofilm was grown on and around the surface of the disks. The yield and volumetric productivity of rotary biofilm contactor were 33.8% and 0.595 g/L${\cdot}$h, respectively, with the optimum effective disk surface area of 1,583 $cm^2/L$.

One of the main problems to constitute control method on biologically oriented wastewater purification processes, e.g. activated sludge process, sequential batch reactor, rotating bio-disk contactor, etc. is that it is hard to control the target component directly. For instance, while biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and chemical oxygen demand are the key components to check the process performance, one may not control them directly since they are the results of microbial activities related to numerous physiochemical factors. Therefore controllers for bioprocess should be designed to make favorable condition for microorganisms´ living, e.g. dissolved oxygen level favorable, mixed liquor suspended solids concentration suitable ...

Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC) was tested for the removal of total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) by using simulated aquaculture system. RBC performance was evaluated by controlling revolution rate of disk and hydraulic residence tile (HRT). The optimum revolution rate of disk was 4 rpm, As HRT of RBC was increased, TAN removal efficiency of RBC and TAN concentration of rearing water were increased. HRT for maintaining lowest TAN concentration of rearing water was 9.5 minutes and at that condition TAN concentration of rearing tank was $1.03 g/m^3$
