Sugar Making

Sugar beet and sugarcane could be processed sugar by various processing. The
process basically includes clarification of the cane juice by milling or
diffusion, clarification of sugarcane juice, concentration of the juice by
evaporation, crystallization of sugar and sugar crystals drying. After all
these process, raw sugars could be produced, while cane sugar does not strictly
need refining, sugar from beet is always under sugar refining process to get
white refined sugar to be used in households and used as ingredient in soft
drinks and foods.

Our SINOFLOC polymers could be used in clarification of sugarcane process.
After the extraction of the cane juice, mixed juice from the extraction mills
need to be purified by adding heat, lime and a flocculants. The lime will be
used as a suspension of calcium hydroxide in a sucrose solution, which will
form a calcium saccharate compound. The enzymes in the juice will be removed by
heat and lime and the PH will be increased from a natural acid level of 5 - 6.5
to a neutral level. When heating over 100°C, the neutralized juice is treated
with other types of flocculants and pumped to a clarification vessel where the
mud settles and the clarified liquor overflows which could be used to the
evaporation stage for further processing of juice clarification.

SINOFLOC team will help our customers to choose the right flocculants for the
sugar refining process.
