Abstract

The increase in sugarcane production involves a proportional increase in sugar industry waste. As a result of such a growing trend, the sugar industry is observing severe environmental problems due to a lack of permanent solution for their waste management. Therefore, immediate consideration is needed to find suitable methods of waste management. The sugar industry waste and effluent are the main sources of environmental pollution and associated with health risks. In this paper, various sources of solids and liquids wastes from the sugar manufacturing industry are reviewed. Different effective and economical sugar industry wastewater treatment techniques are also discussed. The sources and uses of some waste like bagasse, bagasse fly ash, and pressmud have also been discussed.
