This document provides an overview of the sugar manufacturing process. It discusses the key steps which include harvesting sugarcane, transportation, washing, cutting, shredding, crushing, milling, clarification, filtration, evaporation, crystallization, centrifugation, drying, packaging, and production of raw and refined sugar. The Rajasthan State Ganganagar Sugar Mills located in Sriganganagar, Rajasthan is used as an example throughout to explain the various stages involved in sugar production.

4. ABOUT THE COMPANY
• Started At 1945 in Sriganganagar
• It is transferred in 23 F 2008 , But Manufacturing started
on 2015
• Area- 37.695 Hectare
• Total Cost For Making Company-180 Crore
• Total Amount of Sugar Manufacturing
(2016-17)- 65090.00 Quintal
6. INTRODUCTION
• General term indicating sweet
carbohydrates
• Mono-, di- and poly-saccharides
• Obtained from plants, largely sugarcane
& sugar beet plant
• India is 2nd largest producer of sugar
• More than 716 sugar mills in India
12. Material Handling and Storage
• Stored in cane yards
• Carried from cane yard to feeding
area by
• hook/chain
• Cranes
• Reelings
• Conveyer belt
• Carry
• Huge suction truck
19. CRUSHING
• Cane crushed to
break hard
structure
• No juice extracted
• Increase efficiency
of juice extraction
• Subjected to
crusher with
corrugated blades
21. MILLING TANDEMS
• 3 roller mills
connected in series
• Top roller
• Feed roller
• Discharge roller
• 5-7 in number
• Extract the juice
from crushed cane
25. USE OF BAGASSE
• Stored in bagasse storage
• Used as fuel to generate steam
• Steam used for
• Generating electricity
• Evaporation of juice before crystallization
30. EVAPORATION
• Juice evaporated to obtain super saturated
solution
• Juice preheated to
around 107-110ᴼC
• Two types of evaporators
• Single effect evaporators
• Multiple effect evaporators
33. CRYSTALLIZATION
• Carried out in single effect high-
vacuum boiling pans
• Three stages of crystallization
• Nucleation
• Initiation
• elongation
34. CONT…
• Massecuite
• mixture of crystals and mother liquor
(molasses) resulting from the crystallization
• Transferred to crystallizer
at low temprature
36. CENTRIFUGATION
• Separate sugar from molasses
• Centrifuge operates at 100-1800
rpm
• Molasses pass through perforations
• Sugar crystals are
washed with 85ᴼC water
• Raw sugar and molasses
42. RAW & REFINED SUGAR
• Raw sugar
• Obtained directly from sugarcane juice
without refining
• Most natural sugar
• Brown in color due to molasses
• Refined sugar
• Have white luster and transparent
• Bleached to remove color and other
impurities
Notas del editor
FlocculantPolyelectrolyte in solution added to juice to assist clarification. The increase in alkalinity coagulates proteins in the juice.
Calcium carbonate absorbs colourants
Alkalinity destroys some monosaccharide sugars, mostly glucose and fructose
Phosphatation involves addition of lime (CaO) and phosphoric acid (H3
PO4
or P2
O5
)
to the melt liquor which results in formation of a calcium phosphate precipitate. Color
bodies adsorb onto the calcium phosphate precipitate and are removed during the
subsequent clarification and filtration. Polymers are added to aid in the formation of a
precipitate floc which is more easily filtered.
Filter cakeMaterial retained on the filter screens and discharged from the filters after filtering clarifier muds.FiltrateLiquid passed through the screens of the filters.
CalandriaTubular or plate heating element in a vacuum pan or evaporator vessel.
