How is sugar cane processed in a sugar mill?
The sugar cane is harvested from the fields and transported to the mill for processing. The first step is to extract the juice from the sugar cane by crushing it in large mills. The juice is then filtered to remove any impurities. The extracted juice is then boiled to remove any excess water, which leaves a thick syrup. The syrup is then further purified through a process called clarification, which removes any remaining impurities. Once purified, the syrup is boiled again to create sugar crystals. The crystals are then separated from the liquid and dried.
What is bagasse?
Bagasse is the fibrous residue that remains after the juice has been extracted from sugar cane. It is commonly used as a fuel source in the sugar mill to generate steam and electricity.
What is molasses?
Molasses is a thick, dark syrup that is a by-product of the sugar making process. It is often used as a sweetener in various food products and is also used in the production of rum and other alcoholic beverages.
What is the difference between raw sugar and refined sugar?
Raw sugar is the initial product produced from the sugar making process. It contains various impurities and is often brown in color. Refined sugar is produced by further processing the raw sugar to remove impurities and achieve a pure, white product.
What is ethanol and how is it produced in a sugar mill?
thanol is a type of alcohol that is commonly used as a fuel additive and in the production of alcoholic beverages. It is produced by fermenting molasses or sugar cane juice in the presence of yeast. The resulting mixture is then distilled to remove any impurities and obtain a pure ethanol product.
What is press mud?
Press mud is the solid residue that remains after the juice has been extracted from sugar cane. It is often used as a fertilizer in agriculture due to its high nutrient content.
