Think for a minute, is your sugar manufacturing process
the best it can be? Do you ever wonder if you could be getting more yield
out of your equipment
Maybe you're not even aware that losses occur.
Maybe you're not happy with the losses, but you don't know the technology to
reduce them.
Sure, loss is a natural part of the process
but what level of loss is acceptable?
Are there any options to reduce sugar losses?
Wouldn't it be great to reduce losses?
Let's take a closer look at the clarification process.
Standard clarifier designs produce mixing
which agitates the liquid more than necessary--leading to longer selling
and residence times. If there's too much turbulence in the tank,
it takes longer for the mud to settle.
More settling time means more inversion of sugar
which means sugar losses and more color.
Additionally, improperly placed flash tanks allow for more
air entrainment. When air gets into the tank, it keeps mud
from settling properly. A Crompion LLT Clarifier
can actually helping increase efficiency and reduced clarifier losses
rather than use a typical flash tank, the Crompion LLT clarifier
uses flash troughs, making it quicker
and easier to distribute the juice from the heaters
to the clarifier tanks while significantly reducing the opportunity
for air entrainment. The patented turbulence reduction device
is designed to introduce high-volume into the tank
while diffusing turbulence, which can shorten
residence times by as much as seventy-five percent.
Reduced turbulence and faster settling time
leads to be increased sugar production as well as improved color and purity.
So what does that mean for your bottom line?
For a $1 million ton crop reducing retention time
from 120 minutes to thirty minutes can reduce sugar loss
by over 250 tons.
Increased overall yield isn't the only benefit
the Crompion LLT clarifier also has a secondary use.
Traditional clarification schemes include only one clarifier
leaving much of the liquid to be recirculated.
Once the juice is filtered out of the mud, it is sent back to the heaters
only to make another trip through the clarifier.
This process wastes energy, affect pH,
and introduces more opportunity to pick up
bacteria that invert sugar, causing sugar breakdown
from sucrose to invert sugar and leading to
added color. An LLT clarifier can eliminate some of these inefficiencies.
After the juice has been filtered from the mud, an additional LLT clarifier
can be used for
filtrate clarification. Thus eliminating the need for recirculation,
adding potential capacity, and making your factory
more efficient. You'll also benefit from the Crompion
LLT clarifier's innovative design. Because of its versatile design,
the LLT clarifier has fewer internal parts,
takes up less space, and uses less energy
than other clarifiers. It's also made out of Cromgard
stainless steel for maximum durability and longevity.
All of this leads to easier cleaning and lower maintenance costs.
The Crompion LLT combines necessity
with innovation. Affordable design with exceptional quality,
An LLT clarifier uses less energy,
requires less maintenance, and produces sugar with less color.
which will increase efficiency, increase
sugar yield, and increase profits
now that's pretty sweet.
