Abstract

The  aim of this study is to assess the extent of lead and cadmium contamination in effluent released from sugar and Cement Industries in north Karnataka. Physicochemical analysis of effluent reveals that the concentration of lead (0.05mg/l)and cadmium(0.01mg/l) is greater than the permissible limit. The effluent as well as contaminated water is extensively used for the irrigation and drinking purposes in the surrounding areas. Several studies of heavy metal constituents in molasses and other sugars have been conducted.
