The present study mainly deals with the analysis of various physico-chemical characteristics of effluent from sugarcane industry, groundwater in and around sugarcane industry, soil due to effluent of sugarcane industry. Further, it deals with effect of multiple contaminant migration on adsorption and diffusion processes on soil medium, comparison of sorption coefficients by batch and column adsorption studies on virgin soil, and comparison of results between experimental studies and model analyses related to adsorption removal by a virgin soil. The results indicated that the effluent...
