Using Sucrox® liquid permanganate as a processing aid in Louisiana sugarcane factories. In: Proceedings of the Advances in Sugar Crop Processing and Conversion 2018 Conference, May 15-18, 2018, New Orleans, Louisiana. 2:45-55. Interpretive Summary: Technical Abstract: Full-scale sugar mill applications and laboratory research experiments show that SucrOx™ liquid permanganate, when added to sugarcane juice and/or sprayed onto cut sugarcane billets, increases sugar yield and enhances the performance of sugar mill processes. SucrOx addition during the juice extraction steps treatment, prior to hot lime clarification, improves the juice purity, turbidity and clarity. SucrOx treatment of sugar juice leads to decreased scale formation in the evaporators and downstream equipment. |
