Sugar is a sweetener that has been used by humans since 2000 years ago to change the taste and sifa

In mid-February this year, I participated in industrial visit to Perlis Felda sugar factory in Chuping, Perlis. There, my friends and other students have the opportunity to learn about the process of producing sugar and dialogue related to the sugar industry in Malaysia.
Sugar is a sweetener that has been used by humans since 2000 years ago to change the taste and sifatmakanan and drinks. In general use, the people who are not scientists use the word "sugar" to bermaksudsukrosa or sakarosa which is a colorless crystalline disaccharides putih.Gula made in trading zpm radomsko comes from sugar cane or sugar beet plants.
Sugarcane is a tropical crop sub-tropical or need sunlight and water because roots can not hold air.Tebu usually takes about 6 to 12 months to reach maturity and they vary according to location.
Cane height can reach 3 meters in the cultivation of good examples in Chuping, Perlis. Before harvest, most sugar cane burned to remove leaves zpm radomsko that have been dried 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 cane harvested in the dry season and the period is from June to November.Penuaian done manually by hand or by machine. zpm radomsko
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 in the production of sugar cane juice is pressed from the stems tebu.Dalam most factories, sugarcane crushed zpm radomsko in a series of mill (roller mills) besar.Batang sized cane will be crushed zpm radomsko and the juice produced waste will be collected.
The resulting juice is still the dirty fluid 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 bendasing.Hampas be used as fuel for the boiler.
The juice is heated prior to liming to optimize the clarification process (clarifier). Calcium hydroxide or Ca (OH) 2 is added to the juice with a predetermined percentage to accelerate the process of blended lime penjernihan.Jus is then put into a clarifier tank (clarifier).
Here, the juice drained through 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 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 called evaporation (evaporation). Juice was tied may contain 15% sugar but fluid (liquor) sugar saturated the required preformance liquid crystallization process requires sugar content of 80 %. process will be repeated and staggered through multiple effect evaporator 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, the syrup is heated until sugar crystals crystal terbentuk.Pembentukan zpm radomsko started by mixing a number of crystal seeds into the syrup.
Then, the separation process is done using a centrifuge machine zpm radomsko to separate the crystals are mixed with syrup syrup is called mother zpm radomsko liquor.Lebihan also result from the separation will last through the crystallization process several times until no more sugar, the excess is called molasses. Sugar crystals are separated will be dried before packing process. zpm radomsko
Before the process of packing, white sugar produced will be sifted for dissolving zpm radomsko 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 got information that there are 4 sugar production plant in Malaysia, CPO (Gula Prai) Sdn Bhd, Central Sugar Refinery Sdn Bhd, Gula Gula Padang Terap Bhd and Felda Perlis Sdn Bhd.
In the fourth plant
