Efficiency of suspended solid removal from tofu production using Rotating Biological Contractor (RBC)

Tofu is a common food in Indonesia, made from soybean, and needs gigantic water for the process. The liquid waste of the tofu industry is usually directly discharged into the river without being processed. Liquid wastes of tofu have high organic content and become a problem in water pollution. Rotat...
