processing industries in our country on account of liberal government policies, the
importance of waste management has become an essential and integral part of
plant design as the inappropriate disposal of wastage has already caused great loss
to environment and public health. Food processing is a capital intensive, high
energy and water consuming, and moderate to highly polluting industry. However,

and certain types may also be utilized in production of value added products.
