In mid-February this year, I participated in a trip to the Sugar Factory industry ㅏ ㅤ Felda Perlis ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ in Chuping, Perlis. There, my friends and other students have the opportunity to learn about the process of producing sugar and related dialogue ㅏ ㅤ sugar industry in Malaysia.
ㅏ ㅤ sugar is a sweetener that has been used by humans ㅏ ㅤ since 2000 years ago to change the taste and ㅏ ㅤ sifatmakanan and drinks. In general ministry of food processing industry use, the ones that are not ㅏ ㅤ scientists use the word "sugar" to bermaksudsukrosa or sakarosa which is a colorless crystalline ministry of food processing industry disaccharides ministry of food processing industry ㅏ ㅤ made commercially putih.Gula come from ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ sugar cane or sugar beet plants.
ㅏ ㅤ cane plants for sub-tropical or tropical require sunlight and water because roots can not hold air.Tebu usually takes about 6 to 12 months to reach maturity ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ and it varies from place to place.
Cane height can reach 3 meters in the cultivation of good examples in Chuping, Perlis. Before harvest, most sugar cane burned ministry of food processing industry to remove leaves that have been dried ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ to facilitate the harvesting process.
Sugarcane is harvested by cutting the stem (stem) and accidentally left the root in order for it to grow back dimusim hadapan.Selalunya ministry of food processing industry cane harvested in the dry season and the period is from June to November.Penuaian done manually by hand or by machine.
Excess unburned leaves and stems are removed and tied into satu.Penggunaan cut machine capable of cutting sugar cane became more pendek.Selepas deduction felled, sugarcane will be sent directly to the factory immediately as sugar cane cut will not last long.
The first process ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ in the production of sugar cane juice is pressed from the stems tebu.Dalam most factories, sugarcane crushed in a series of mill (roller mills) ㅏ ㅤ besar.Batang sized cane will be crushed into the dirt ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ and juice issued will be collected.
The resulting juice is still a dirty fluid ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ namely residues from farm land and extract from the leaves and bark of plants all mixed in the sugar cane juice. Juice extraction from results contains about 15% sugar cane fiber called bagasse ministry of food processing industry bendasing.Hampas be used as ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ fuel for the boiler.
The juice is heated prior to liming to optimize ministry of food processing industry the clarification process (clarifier). Calcium hydroxide or Ca (OH) 2 is added to the juice with a predetermined ministry of food processing industry percentage to accelerate the process of blended lime penjernihan.Jus is then put into a clarifier tank (clarifier). ministry of food processing industry
Here, the juice drained through ministry of food processing industry clarifier with low speed until lump impurities ranging from sugar cane fiber that terbentuk.Gumpalan will settle and the juice that comes out is a clear juice.
Dirt sludge ministry of food processing industry still contains sugar is filtered again and this time use the rotary vacuum filter that will remove the excess juice from the mud can be cleaned before dikeluarkan.Hasilnya a liquid containing sugar and passed to the next process.
Sugar cane juice is then evaporated into syrup by heating using steam in a process ministry of food processing industry called evaporation ministry of food processing industry (evaporation). Juice was tied may contain 15% sugar but fluid (liquor) sugar saturated the required preformance liquid crystallization process requires sugar content ministry of food processing industry of 80 %. process will be repeated and staggered through multiple effect evaporator ministry of food processing industry is heated with steam to saturation point.
In the end, syrups put in a very large vacuum boiler to boil at a temperature of 70c. At the boiler, ministry of food processing industry the syrup is heated until sugar crystals crystal ministry of food processing industry terbentuk.Pembentukan started by mixing a number of crystal seeds into the syrup.
Then, the separation ministry of food processing industry process is done using a centrifuge machine to separate the crystals are mixed with syrup syrup is called mother liquor.Lebihan also result from the separation will last through the crystallization process several times until no more sugar, ministry of food processing industry the excess is called molasses. Sugar crystals are separated will be dried before packing process.
Before the process of packing, white sugar produced will be sifted for dissolving and separating from gula.Gula white blobs are stored in silo.Gula be weighed and packed in 50kg and 1 total kg.Proses done using automatic machine. Pre-pack of sugar will be stored in storage before being sent to the user.
Turning to the sugar business in Malaysia, I ㅏ ㅤ ㅏ ㅤ received information that there are 4 sugar production plant in Malaysia, ministry of food processing industry CPO (Gula Prai) Sdn Bhd, Central Sugar Refinery Sdn Bhd, Gula Padang ㅏ ㅤ Apply ㅏ ㅤ Bhd and Felda Perlis Sugar Co., Ltd..
