Abstract

The inputs and outputs of sugar mill industries include different types of raw materials viz. sugarcane, water, bagasse and other chemicals which play important role in the sugar industry. This paper deals with the mass balance of input and output species in the Faridpursugar industry, Bangladesh and the impact of the output effluents in the Chandana River, Faridpur, Bangladesh. The study steps are: (1) The general modeling of the basic processes in the sugar industry was illustrated. (2) Then, the mass balance of the input and output species were calculated for a seasonal duration. (3) The water quality parameters of the effluents of the industry were tested at different distances in the river. (4) Finally, a sustainable solution of the effluents was recommended by analyzing the condition of the overall system. The results of the study are: (1) the basic modeling of the sugar industry has the potential key for the mass balance solution. (2) The mass balance of the mill was carried out in three different steps which show the system is almost accurate and matches with the basic modeling. (3) The water quality parameters were carried out in the laboratory to notice the effect of the effluents in Chandana River which was very tremendous for the ecosystem of that region. (4) Waste water stabilization pond system for the effluents can bring a sustainable solution to the sugar mills from the environmental hazards.
