Title : Sugar factory wastewater management strategies for environmental protection in Mauritius
Year of publication : 1996
Keywords : SUGARCANE; WASTE WATERS; WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT; SUGAR FACTORY WASTE; ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION; MSIRI STAFF; ST; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Wong Sak Hoi, L.; Ragen, A. K.; Julien, M. H. R.; Sugar factory wastewater management strategies for environmental protection in Mauritius; 1996
Abstract : Sugar factory wastewaters consist mainly of non-toxic substances namely, dissolved sugar, fine bagasse particles, smut, furnace ash and oil/grease. Seventy-five mg/L COD appears to be an achievable target during week day crushing, if pollution reduction at source is practised to reduce the hydraulic, BOD, COD and solids loading. Biochemical oxygen demand( BOD) and chemical oxygen (COD) refer to the oxygen required to biograde or to chemically oxidize the waste constituents of the effluents. However, during weekend and end-of-crop washing, the effluent volume is low but hte COD content is high. Certain factories have special or sedimentation ponds for wastewater which is released gradually into the irrigation network. This practice appears to be a better approach than diluting the objectionable effluent with raw water to the Government effluent discharge norms.

Title : Contribution of agricultural economics to sugarcane research and development in Mauritius
Year of publication : 1996
Keywords : SUGARCANE; AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Tonta, J.; Toory, V.; Julien, M. H. R.; Contribution of agricultural economics to sugarcane research and development in Mauritius; 1996
Abstract : Agricultural research in Mauritius dates back more than 100 years. Since 1953, the Mauritius Sugar Industry Research Institute (MSIRI) has been responsible for all research work pertaining to sugarcane. The emphasis has been on sugar processing and sugarcane agronomy. During the 1980s, a consensus emerged that agricultural economics was a key factor in sugarcane Research and Development. The importance, achievements, and future orientation of the discipline to sugarcane research in Mauritius are discussed.
