An Alternate Use of Sugarcane - the Open Pan Sugar Process and Its Dual Roles of Rural Development and Cane Supply Regulation
نویسنده
چکیده
VP mills require significantly larger volumes of cane supply, than Open Pan (OP) mills (Tribe 1987). The amalgamation of larger cane supply volumes means greater transport distances; which in turn sees pressure being brought on the infrastructure (zones, roads, bridges etc.) supporting the command areas of these mills. LDAs in the sugar industry occur as a general rule on the periphery of Large Scale Growers (LSGs), areas increasing transport costs for SSGs supplying existing VP mills.

The potentials of three renewable biomass types as 'Green Power' alternatives for sugarcane milling were evaluated: (1) baled sugarcane trash, (2) high-yielding perennial grass (ie, Napier grass), and (3) fast-growing tree species. The data shows that approximately 5.9% of energy used for boilers in sugar processing, provided by 365,000 barrels of imported bunker oil, can be displaced by 246,00...
