Abstract
With reference to case studies, this paper will demonstrate the benefits of using CarboUA's patent-pending high performance purification aids to achieve enhanced phosphatation clarification performance in sugar refineries. The additional purification imparted to the in-process liquors are reported and measured utilizing colour as the performance metric. Production efficiency gains are measured by improvements in low grade boilings (R4) as well as improvements in the ratio of fine liquors : syrups in vacuum pan boilings. The palpable benefits translating into immediate increases in profitability are evidenced by increased daily refined sugar output and improved refined sugar quality.
