How much do you know about sugarcane press, sugarcane juice press, sugarcane press, and sugar mill press in China's sugarcane production areas and sugar mill press production processes?

The white sugar we use daily, abbreviated as white sugar, is almost composed of a single component called sucrose, and the sucrose content of white sugar is generally above 95%. The basic raw materials for sugar production are sugarcane and sugar beet. Sugarcane grows in tropical and subtropical regions, while sugar beet grows in temperate regions. The main sugarcane producing areas in China are mainly concentrated in southern regions such as Guangxi, Yunnan, and Zhanjiang in Guangdong. Central and southern Guangxi, southwestern Yunnan, and western Guangdong are the advantageous areas for sugarcane production in China. The sugarcane growing areas in western Guangdong mainly include three cities: Zhanjiang, Maoming, and Yangjiang, with Zhanjiang being the main city. In recent years, the planting area of sugar cane in Zhanjiang city has been maintained at around 1.6 million mu, accounting for 70% of the province.

Sugar mill sugarcane crushing is mainly divided into two stages

There are two stages of sugarcane crushing and sugarcane pressing, in which sugarcane needs to go through the crusher to form into filaments before being sent to the press for pressing

The sugar production process of sugarcane includes juice extraction, purification, evaporation, crystallization, honey separation, and drying. The process technology of the last four steps is basically the same as that of sugar beet production.

The modern sugarcane sugar making process mainly involves squeezing and exudation methods for extracting sugarcane juice from sugarcane. The squeezing method is a method of extracting sugarcane juice by combining pre-treatment and squeezing equipment with infiltration systems. The exudation method is a method in which sugarcane is pre treated and crushed, and through the use of exudation equipment and a certain juice flow system, the sugarcane material is infiltrated with water and dilute sugar juice to continuously leach and wash out the sugarcane sugar content.

Next, we will mainly talk about the sugarcane pressing method

The principle of using a sugarcane press in a sugar factory to extract juice is mainly to cut the sugarcane into filamentous and sheet-like sugarcane materials, which are fed into the press. This causes the cell wall of the sugarcane cells filled with juice to rupture under the pressure of the sugarcane press rollers and oil pressure. The sugarcane material is compressed, and the cells are flattened while the juice is discharged; By using the infiltration system, the expanded bagasse discharged from the press is added with water or diluted with juice to dilute the sugar content inside the cells and extract more sugarcane juice.

Sugarcane is pressed multiple times through several three roll presses. Add water for infiltration before the sugarcane enters the final press. The added water is called infiltration water, and the general dosage is 15-25% of the amount of sugarcane. The juice extracted from the last press is called the last press juice, which is then pumped into the previous press as the leachate. The sugarcane material that enters the press is infiltrated, and the squeezed juice is then used as the leachate from the previous press until it reaches the second press. This is the commonly used compound infiltration method in sugar factories. The juice squeezed by multiple presses is combined into a mixed juice and sent for purification treatment. The sugarcane material discharged from the last press is called bagasse. The moisture content in bagasse is 45-50%, sugar content is 1-4%, fiber content is 45-52%, and soluble solids are 1.5-6%. Bagasse is sent to boilers as fuel or used as other industrial raw materials. The sugar extraction efficiency of the juice extraction method is measured by the sugar extraction rate, which is defined as the mass percentage of sucrose extracted from sugarcane. The sugar extraction rate of sugarcane mills is between 92% and 97%.

The main equipment for sugarcane squeezing and extracting juice includes a sugarcane cutter, sugarcane press and its driving device, infiltration system, and corresponding conveying equipment. The sugarcane cutter consists of a cane cutter and a driving device. The sugarcane press consists of three rollers and a frame. The rollers of the three roll press are embedded into a triangle and are called the top roller, front roller, and rear roller depending on their position. There is a certain gap between the top roller and the front and rear rollers. The shaft ends of the three rollers are equipped with transmission teeth, and the top rollers are driven by a reduction device by a prime mover such as an electric motor, steam turbine, or steam engine, so that the three squeezing rollers rotate at the same speed.

The production capacity of a sugarcane factory is expressed in terms of the daily crushing of sugarcane by the factory. The ability to handle sugarcane is related to factors such as the number of crushing machines, sugarcane crushing degree, diameter and length of the crushing rollers, roller speed, sugarcane fiber content, and requirements for sugar extraction.
