Notes on Involved Energy in Cane Sugar Processing Dr Carlos de Armas Dr Oscar Almazan Dr Carlos de Armas Dr Oscar Almazan

Cane Sugar Processing Extraction Separation of the sugared juice from the bagasse (fiber +water+ ) Purification Separation of non desirable substances from juice; colloidal Evaporation Separation of most of the water Cristallization Separation of sucrose from different classes of molasses Centrifugation Separation of sugar crystals Steam and Power Generation Extraction Separation of the sugared juice from the bagasse (fiber +water+ ) Purification Separation of non desirable substances from juice; colloidal Evaporation Separation of most of the water Cristallization Separation of sucrose from different classes of molasses Centrifugation Separation of sugar crystals Steam and Power Generation

EXTRACTION (MILLING) water Bagasse Cane Pre- paration Mill No 1 Mill No. 2 Mill No. N Exhaust Section Counter-current Extraction 3 to 5 Mills Mixing Mixed juice to purification First extraction juice Juice Mixed juice Brix 13 to15 Purity 80 to 90

COMMON NOMENCLATURE IN EXTRACTION COMMON NOMENCLATURE IN EXTRACTION Cane Raw material fed to the milling station Imbibition water Absolute juice Fibre Water added in the exhaust section for washing out and recovering most of the sucrose in cane Common numbers are 20 to 35 % on cane Total weight of cane minus the weight of present fibre. A common relation between both is 86 to 14 % on cane The lignocellulosic structure giving strength to the cane to keep itself erected. Common values are 12 to 14 % on cane.

Mixed juice ; Juice coming off the milling station and going into the purification station. The weight of mixed juice produced per unit time, is quite similar to that of cane ground per same unit time, in many healthy installations. Bagasse; Is the lign ocellulosic residue left frrom cane after the juice extraction in the milling station. Most of its components are fibre, between 45 and 47 % on wet bagasse, and moisture, between 49 and 51 % on wet bagasse. From 2 % to 4 % may be soluble solids, mainly sucrose. Fundamental Equationof milling is Cane + Imbibition Water = Mixed Juice + Bagasse.

CANE SUGAR; AN ENERGY INTENSIVE INDUSTRY Cane sugar industry is an insdustry with strong involvements with energy. ~ The raw material, sugar cane, bring its own fuel for processing, and even more. ~It shows high thermal (steam) demand for processing, while its demand of mechanical energy is low, allowing high cogeneration.

Bagasse It is the natural fuel in processes of production of sugar and etha-nol. Enough for fulfilling whole demands. Reaching in practice, in addition, a balance between produced and burned bagasse, through control of boilers effi-ciency. Surplus bagasse without a goal, is as bad as not enough bagasse.

Bagasse In Cuba, when producing in a campaign, 6 million ton of sugar, there are ground 50 mil-lion ton of cane, with a bagasse production of 15 million ton, out of which, 95 % is burned, going the difference to derivatives. This 15 million ton bagasse, are equivalent to 3 million ton fuel oil.

Bagasse..and the most interesting fact..!! While in producing cane sugar, it is spent the whole energy freed by the 2.5 kg of bagasse coming along with 1.0 kg of sugar, i.e kcal, in beet sugar proces- sing, there are spent per kg produ-ced not more than 2000, that is, potentially, there exists about 50 % surplus bagasse. Why it is not so in practice?..and the most interesting fact..!!

~ Up to the seventies there were no possibilities, 1.0 bb of “fuel” costed less than US $ 4 00 ~ Current policy ; to avoid surplus without goal. They cost money. ~ Seasonal fashion of sugar pro- duction ~Different kinds of bussiness, laws and regulations. ~ Up to the seventies there were no possibilities, 1.0 bb of “fuel” costed less than US $ 4 00 ~ Current policy ; to avoid surplus without goal.

Generation and use of energy Sales to the grid kW-h /tc for fulfilling whole demand of the factory. For tc per day, 150 (ton/hour), power generation is of the order of 5000 kw (inclu-ding the mills). Energy reser-ves due to co-generation plus surplus bagasse may grow up to kw (70 kw-h/tc) as per Mauritius Island experience kW-h /tc for fulfilling whole demand of the factory.

Energy reser-ves due to co-generation plus surplus bagasse may grow up to kw (70 kw-h/tc) as per Mauritius Island experience

Generation and Use of Energy Sales to the Grid Through changes in steam generation parameters, and with efficient use of steam in process, which in general mean investments, there are reached surplus of the order of kw-h per ton of cane, i.e. for a factory grinding 150 ton per hour, it is not impossible to deliver to the grid kw with proved technologies (Mauricio Island and Hawaii).

Possible sizes are not enough efficient, and very expensive per kw to operate 60 to 70 per cent time with fossil fuels.
