Raw Sugar Filterability Improvements with Syrup Clarification

A study has been initiated to review syrup clarification technology, with the objective of finding methods of improving syrup clarification, including chemical addition, and with special reference to aeration and flocculation problems. Preliminary results suggest that significant improvements to raw sugar quality are possible, particularly filterability. The review to-date is presented, with re...

Starch in the Manufacture of Raw Sugar

TMS{Dwyka+Dwyka ... 510 4 2 The tests were carried out during October/November which is past .the peak maturity period. By taking a number of samples from each variety it was hoped that variations due to ratoon, age, soil, rainfall, etc. would be smoothed out. The results indicated that there is a definite varietal trend but considerable fluctuations occurred within each variety. N:Co.310 showe...

White Space Regions

We study a classical problem in communication and wireless networks called Finding White Space Regions. In this problem, we are given a set of antennas (points) some of which are noisy (black) and the rest are working fine (white). The goal is to find a set of convex hulls with maximum total area that cover all white points and exclude all black points. In other words, these convex hulls make i...

Investigation into the Filtering Quality of Raw Sugar

The investigation into the filterability of raw sugar was In response to occasional complaints from customers, attention has focused on the filtration behaviour of raw sugars. Offending sugars, together with several others, were extensively analysed to establish the probable causes of the problem. Parameters correlating most strongly with poor filterability were turbidity and soluble phosphate ...
