Present work is based on the physico-chemical analysis of effluents released from Saraya sugar factory and distillery. It was found that both the industry consume huge amount of water and throw back almost and equal amount of effluent containing highly toxic material in solid and dissolved form. Comparably distillery effluent was more worst than sugar factory having lower pH (4.89±0.007) and higher temperature (56.2±0.027 0C), electrical conductivity (3910±0.0032 μS/cm), free CO2 (986±0.05 mg/ml), alkalinity (3912±0.0012 mg/ml), chloride (6213±0.0029 mg/ml), total hardness (4477±0.015 mg/ml), calcium (2676±0.011 mg/ml), magnesium (1828±0.007 mg/ml), total solid (91876±0.01 mg/ml), total dissolved solid (88265±0.008 mg/ml), total suspended solid (3611±0.03 mg/ml), nitrate (32.8±0.009 mg/ml), phosphate (1.2±0.0019 mg/ml), sulphate (803±0.02 mg/ml) and oil and greases (202±0.05 mg/ml). Conclusively it is quit unsafe for domestic and agricultural purposes. Therefore, it should be recycled and utilize further for industrial purpose only.
