Sugarcane washing machine

Washing can occur on belts that are sprayed with water or in flues that are full of water. Rotating drums are often used as washing stations. Water is sprayed into the drum and product rotates within the drum, rubbing against itself to remove dirt

Sugarcane transport

After washing, the sugarcane are conveyed into the factory for juice extraction using screws or belts.

Blanching of sugarcane stick

To protect the color of the final product by deactivate the enzyme, blanch the sugarcane by steam/ water, for example, 100℃, 5 mins

Sugarcane Juice

Extraction

For sugar cane, milling is used to extract the juice. multiple sets of three-roller mills are most commonly used although some mills consist of

four, five, or six rollers in multiple sets. Conveyors transport the crushed cane from one mill to the next. Imbibition is the process in which water or juice is applied to the crushed cane to enhance the extraction of the juice at the next mill. In imbibition, water or juice from other processing areas is introduced into the last mill and transferred from mill to mill towards the first two mills while the crushed cane travels from the first to the last mill. The crushed cane exiting the last mill is called bagasse. The juice from the mills is strained to remove large particles and then clarified.The initial juice is dark green in color and is acidic and turbid. The juice is collected in large vats.

Sugarcane juice filtration

Ultrafiltration is a pressurized membrane separation technology. Under certain pressure, small molecule solute and solvent pass through the apertures of a special film, while the large molecules leave one side of the membrane. In this way, the large molecule content get purified. Ultrafiltration is a membrane separation technique that adopts pressure to separate large and small molecules.

Sugarcane juice

Evaporator

The clarified juice is passed through heat exchangers to preheat the juice and then to the evaporator stations. Evaporator stations consist of a series of evaporators, termed multiple-effect evaporators; typically a series of five evaporators. Steam from large boilers is used to heat the first evaporator, and the steam from the water evaporated in the first evaporator is used to heat the second evaporator. This heat transfer process continues through the five evaporators and as the temperature decreases (due to heat loss) from evaporator to evaporator, the pressure inside each evaporator also decreases which allows the juice to boil at the lower temperatures in the subsequent evaporator. Some steam is released from the first three evaporators, and this steam is used in various process heaters in the plant. The evaporator station in cane sugar manufacture typically produces a syrup with about 65 percent solids and 35 percent water.
