People living near by sugar factories faced so many problems, some are explained here,
The sugar mill waste water, as it leaves the premises, has a relatively clear appearance, however, after stagnating for sometime, the waste water turns black and starts emitting foul odour. If discharged in water courses, its high BOD depletes dissolved oxygen in water and makes the environment unfit for fish and other aquatic life. Oil and grease in waste water hasten such mortalities. If untreated waste water is discharged on land, decaying organic solid and oil and grease present in the waste water clog the soil pores. The waste waters from some of the sections contain considerable amount of suspended solids which deposit and cause blockage in drains and ditches.
