ACTIVATED SLUDGE
this is not actually a filter, but is a bed of plastic or rock packing or other
support media, on which bacterial slime can grow.
ROTATING BIOLOGICAL CONTACTOR (RBC)
In this case the bacterial slime grows on the surface of a series of slowly
rotating vertical discs (or other media) attached to a central shaft, which
are partially submerged in the contaminated wastewater.
