Quality and management of wastewater in sugar industry

Abstract: Wastewater from sugar industries is one that has complex characteristics and is considered a challenge for environmental engineers in terms of treatment as well as utilization. Before treatment and recycling, determination of physicochemical parameter is an important mechanism. Many different types of techniques are introduced and modified for the purpose, but depend upon the water quality parameters. The main aim of this study is to determine the physicochemical characteristics of sugar industry waste water b… Show more

“…Dissolved and non-dissolved substances called as total solids and it composed of carbonates bicarbonates, chlorides, sulphates, nitrates, Ca, Mg, Mn, organic matter, silts and other particles which caused pollution of water bodies. It affects the intensity of light and living organisms (Poddar and Sahu 2015). BOD is an important parameter that indicates the magnitude of water pollution, by the oxidizable organic matter and the oxygen used to oxidize inorganic material such sulphides and ferrous ions.…”

“…The strong oxidizing agents should be oxidized completely all organic substances except some other substances of effluent in acidic condition. The BOD and COD tests are used in indication of toxic conditions and the presence of biologically resistance substances in the sugar mill effluent (Malik et al 2014;Poddar and Sahu 2015). High amount of magnesium (286 mg/l), sulphate (290.88 mg/l), nitrogen (1250 mg/l), oil and grease (19 mg/l) and the toxic heavy metals such as zinc (0.89 mg/l), iron (16 mg/l), copper (0.420 mg/l), lead (0.52 mg/l) and manganese (0.068 mg/l) were recorded in the collected sugar mill effluent sample.…”

“…Sugar industries can be classified broadly into three categories: (1) those that produce only raw table sugar (2) those that produce only ethanol, and (3) the integrated ones that produce both raw sugar and ethanol. Many sugar industries belong to the sugar factory annexed to ethanol distilleries.…”

“…This industry is currently making a substantial contribution to economic development and the major sources for the job creation in many developing countries in Asia, Africa and South America. The industry is involved in sugarcane processing action to produce raw sugar from more than 70% of the sugarcane produced in the worldwide [1]. In addition to sugar, the industry produces byproducts such as bagasse (residue from sugarcane crushing), press mud (dirt mud residue from juice clarification), molasses (final residue from sugar crystallization) and wastewater [2].…”
