  • decolorization of Sugar syrups using commercial and Sugar beet pulp based activated carbons
    Bioresource Technology, 2008
    Co-Authors: H Mudoga, Hayrettin Yucel, N Kincal
    Abstract:

    Abstract Sugar syrup decolorization was studied using two commercial and eight beet pulp based activated carbons. In an attempt to relate decolorizing performances to other characteristics, surface areas, pore volumes, bulk densities and ash contents of the carbons in the powdered form; pH and electrical conductivities of their suspensions and their color adsorption properties from iodine and molasses solution were determined. The color removal capabilities of all carbons were measured at 1/100 (w/w) dosage, and isotherms were determined on better samples. The two commercial activated carbons showed different decolorization efficiencies; which could be related to their physical and chemical properties. The decolorization efficiency of beet pulp carbon prepared at 750 °C and activated for 5 h using CO 2 was much better than the others and close to the better one of the commercial activated carbons used. It is evident that beet pulp is an inexpensive potential precursor for activated carbons for use in Sugar Refining.

  • clarification of Sugarcane juice by ultrafiltration membrane toward the direct production of refined cane Sugar
    Journal of Food Engineering, 2020
    Co-Authors: Jeffrey Leblanc, Chung Chi Chou
    Abstract:

    Abstract The conventional process for producing white Sugar is energy intensive and inefficient. This paper discusses an intensified Sugar Refining process that utilizes ultrafiltration (UF) membrane technology as an alternative to a chemical purification process to remove color and simplify further Refining. The inclusion of sodium bicarbonate combined with UF filtration improved the occlusion index of the cane juice, by removing excess calcium ions and polysaccharides, which led to improvements in crystal growth rate, crystal size, and Sugar color. The UF permeate could be directly boiled and crystallized to produce United States Food Grade white Sugar. Pilot studies of the UF process achieved a refined Sugar of 83 ICUMSA from a clarified syrup of 11,425 ICUMSA and 85% purity. Application of a UF membrane system in Sugar mills can eliminate various Refining processes such as affination, phosphatation, and/or granular carbon/bone char/ion exchange for decolorization. Therefore, the UF-assisted process would produce high-quality food-grade Sugar products meeting commercial specifications with considerable savings in both capital and operating costs.

  • capital structure and the financial development of the u s Sugar Refining industry 1875 1905
    The Journal of Economic History, 2000
    Co-Authors: William M Doyle
    Abstract:

    In this article I develop a taxonomy of fmancial practices based on whether financial activity is intended to fund new capital investment or to create new financial structures to accommodate planned changes in the structure of an industry's existing capital stock. The taxonomy is then applied to the financial development of the U.S. Sugar-Refining industry between 1875 and 1905. The taxonomy provides an explanation of the rise of the large, widely held industrial corporation in the United States that is more consistent with the historical record than are the conventional "financial strain" or "asset liquidation" hypotheses. A ccording to Raymond W. Goldsmith, a steadily increasing ratio of financial assets to tangible wealth has been a universal feature of the economic development ofthe industrialized world.1 Two ofthe most significant factors in accelerating this trend in the United States were the rise of the industrial corporation and the emergence of an- active, formal market for industrial securities during the late nineteenth century. Most accounts of these phenomena locate their primary cause either in increased fixed- and working-capital requirements that could not be accommodated within the existing structure of financial institutions, or in the desire of industrialists to form corporations to enable the liquidation of equity that would otherwise have been sunk in an unsaleable partnership or proprietorship.2
