The sugar industrysubsumes the production, processing and marketing of sugars. Globally, most sugar is extracted fromsugarcane. During the whole process of sugar formation huge amount of harmful chemicals are discharge into river and streams and pollute water. Sugar industry is a very important agro based industry in India and it discharge large amount of effluent into the water bodies to create high pollution load in them and thus alter the parameters of water which in turn harm river ecosystem. The sugar mills generate effluent which makes environmental problems related to water and land pollution.The waste water generated from sugar mills infiltrate into subsoil and leaches into ground water forming contaminated pool which disturb the ground water quality by changing its chemical composition properties and cause water pollution.Usually bagasse gets used to power boilers within the sugar industry and this process causes the emission of pollutants such as sulphurdioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogenoxide. Other pollutants discharge from sugar mill is oil and greases, carbonate,bicarbonate, nitrite, phosphate etc.
