This review article presents a survey of selected principal biosynthetic pathways that lead to the most important monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, sugar alcohols, and cyclitols in foods and in food raw materials ...

We revisit the cost of the U.S. sugar program by analyzing the welfare implications of its removal. We use a multimarket model of U.S. sweetener markets, which includes raw crops, sugar extraction and refining, high-fructose corn syrup, and sweetener users (food-processing industries and final consumers). Our approach addresses the industrial organization of food industries using sweeteners and...

in this study, analysis of actual data collected from sugar beet hybrid monogerm seed producers in the 2001 growing season and laboratory seed samples showed that delay in steckling sowing resulted in the reduction of raw and pure sugar beet seed yield and the increase of undersize seed portion. non-significant effect of sowing dates on unkernel seed percent showed that the high temperatures wi...

Raw bagasse, Bagasse fly ash and distillery sludge, the waste generated in sugar mills and distillery have been used as lowcost potential biosorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium from an aqueous solution. The effect of hydrogen ion concentration, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial concentrations of adsorbate and adsorbent dose on the uptake of chromium were studied in batch experime...

c) Sub-samples of the hourly clear iuice sample were com. . An attempt was made to enhance colour removal in the raw posited over four hours and anaiysed for phosphate conhouse and refinery under the abnormal conditions of the 19831 tent as in (a) and (b) and for colour according to the 84 season so as to maintain an acceptable colour quality in the ICUMSA 420 method. final refined sugar produc...

During the 1999-crushing season, the Malelane Mill installed vibratory screens after the quadruple effect evaporator. The purpose of the screens was to separate out any residual scale originating from the chemical cleaning of the evaporator vessels. This strategy was adopted after attempts to improve the flush out of the evaporator vessels after chemical cleaning proved ineffective in removing ...

In preparation for defecation clarification of raw or mixed juice, the juice is screened, heated, limed and flashed, while the flowrate of juice to the clarification process is carefully controlled. Despite the potential for enhancement or optimisation in each.of these pre-treatment areas, the past 50 years of South African Sugar Technologists' Association (SAST~) proceedings offer only six pap...
