People say that the third world war will be for water, it may come true in the future. Depleting natural resources are a threat to the life, out of which water is an important resource. Due to ecological imbalances and extraction of groundwater, water strata are going down day by day and we can imagine the situation of the day when it will become un-available.This paper describe the detail of a condensate polishing system in which vapour condensate is treated in a self developed polisher to replace DM water utilizing mixture of canonic and anionic resins for polishing to remove inorganic and organic impurities after pre-filtration. This paper described the results obtained with polisher and a scenario where surplus water can be utilized for potable or other uses after pre-filtration and polishing the surplus condensate. This system once implemented will eliminate the use of ground water and effluent discharge will be almost zero from a sugar plant.Sugarcane is a rich source of water, as such we feel like other byproducts the possibility is there for water as fourth byproduct of the sugar industry, which will provide a new dimension to this industry. In this paper attempt has been made to develop a model for further saving of ground water by using water corning from cane and to explore the possibility to conserve the cane water, which is lost in the current traditional process of the industry.
