We consider the one-dimensional partially asymmetric exclusion process with random hopping rates, in which a fraction of particles (or sites) have a preferential jumping direction against the global drift. In this case the accumulated distance traveled by the particles, x, scales with the time, t, as x ∼ t1/z, with a dynamical exponent z > 0. Using extreme value statistics and an asymptotically exact strong disorder renormalization group method we exactly calculate, zpr, for particlewise (pt) disorder, which is argued to be related as, zst=zpr/2, for sitewise (st) disorder. In the symmetric with zero mean drift the particle diffusion is ultra-slow, logarithmic in time.
