Book The Technology of Sugar  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Technology of Sugar Classic Reprint written by John Geddes M'Intosh and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Technology of Sugar A Year ago (Mid July, 1914) the French sugar works and distillery chemists held their annual congress at Arras. There was a monument there to the founder of the great beet-sugar industry of France. The congressionists reverently laid a wreath on this monument to the man who, as far back as 1825, annually manufactured in Arras alone 140 tons of beet sugar, besides another forty tons at Genlis, and who in 1838, when beet sugar was first taxed, farmed 5,685 acres, consisting of seven farms in the Pas de Calais, two farms in the Aisne, two in the Somme, and two in the Oise, managing at the same time besides these thirteen farms, seven beet-sugar factories as well as his Arras sugar refinery. (Very possibly this monument, like the Cathedral of Arras itself, is now in ruins.) The moral the author would draw is this, viz. that the beet-sugar industry is not to be established in Britain by irresponsible pamphleteers and professional company promoters, some of whom have disseminated broadcast statements which they cannot substantiate. Great Britain still awaits its beet-sugar pioneer - its Monsieur Crcspel Delisse - who will establish the industry by the sweat of his brow and by his own personal sacrifices. Until that man appears on the scene the author prefers to remain silent as to the present attempts. He does not forget the fact that prior to 1870 thirteen English distilleries were working on beets and all came to grief. As to the cane-sugar industry, it is impossible for planters to supervise their estates efficiently so long as they remain ignorant of the rudiments of agricultural chemistry. It is most deplorable to find, as mentioned in a footnote in the text, that some of the managing directors of several combined plantations cannot differentiate, as regards rum, between degrees overproof and degrees of percentage strength (Gay Lussac), and yet they wonder how it is they do not get the proper yield of alcohol from their molasses. Industrial alcohol from molasses should be a fruitful source of income in the future as well as the recovery of potash salts from the spent wash.

Book Cane Sugar and Its Manufacture  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Cane Sugar and Its Manufacture Classic Reprint written by H. C. Prinsen-Geerligs and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cane Sugar and Its Manufacture The aim of the present work is to compile in one book everything that is known about the chemistry and the technology of the sugar cane and cane sugar manufacture. In doing this, the discussion of technicalities relating to machinery has been carefully avoided, because this subject is already sufficiently dealt with in Noel Deerr's work, "Sugar and the Sugar Cane." Only those points are mentioned here which are indispensable for the proper understanding of the chemical and technical questions investigated in this work. Although the author has chiefly made use of his own investigations and researches carried on during his 17 years' continuous stay in Java at the head of the West Java Sugar Experiment Station, he has also gladly and gratefully referred to the results of work done by his colleagues in other parts of the world. In every case, where reference is made to the work of others, this has been acknowledged in a footnote. The enumeration of the chemical and physical characteristics of the three kinds of sugar is chiefly borrowed from Prof. Dr. E. O. von Lippmann's excellent handbook, "Die Ohemie der Zuckerarten." In agreement with that distinguished scientist, the author has used in his book Fischer's nomenclature for the different kinds of sugar, because the terms dextrose and levulose are fast becoming obsolete in scientific literature and are apt to cause confusion. In the present work the different terms have the following signification: - Sugar: The commercial product. Sucrose: The chemical body, the principal constituent of the commercial product. Glucose: The chemical body, also called dextrose. Fructose: The chemical body, also called levulose. Invert Sugar: The mixture of exactly equal proportions of glucose and fructose. Reducing Sugar: Mixtures of uneven proportions of glucose and fructose. The author has pleasure in acknowledging his great indebtedness to two gentlemen, Mr. James P. Ogilvie, Associate Editor of the International Sugar Journal, and Mr. T. H. P. Heriot - especially the latter - for a painstaking and laborious revision of the English text.

Download or read book The Manufacture of Sugar From the Cane and Beet Classic Reprint written by T. H. P. Heriot and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manufacture of Sugar From the Cane and Beet It has often been stated that the sugar producer can only be trained in the factory, theoretical knowledge being of little value. The aim of the present work is to show that successful practice is becoming more and more dependent on scientific principles, which can be studied more effectively outside the factory than inside. It is worth recording that the British cane-sugar producer followed the beet-sugar producer in adopting the following inventions and processes: - Bone-char and sulphur dioxide, for bleaching the juice; the Carbonatation Process, for purifying and clarifying the juice; the Diffusion Process, for extracting sugar from the plant; the filter press; the multiple-effect evaporator in vacuo; the vacuum pan; apparatus for crystallisation-in-motion; the use of "seed-grain" in the vacuum pan; the centrifugal machine for curing sugar; the centrifugal machine for clarifying juice; technical schools for the study of sugar-technology; and "chemical control" of manufacturing operations. The French cane-sugar industry led the way in systematic experiments in manuring of the cane; experiments on extraction of juice by milling; the invention of "shredders," to increase the mill-extraction;and the diffusion of sliced cane. The British cane-sugar producer is probably not aware that his "up-to-date" factory is borrowed from his rival, for he shows little or no interest in the problems of beet-sugar manufacture. The student of sugar-technology should have a wider outlook, and keep in touch with all branches of sugar-production, although he can only hope to specialise in one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Condensed Description of the Manufacture of Beet Sugar This little book was written in 1903-5, but was not published, and was temporarily laid aside by the author. Recently his attention was called to it again and on re-reading it he was impressed by the fact that very few developments had taken place during this time, and the book could be brought up to date with very few alterations and additions. This has been done. The author thinks that the brevity and conciseness with which the mam principles of the beet-sugar industry are touched upon and treated may make this little book a welcome edition for superintendents, engineers, and foremen of the beet-sugar industry.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Production of Sugar in the United States and Foreign Countries Convention the beet-sugar industry of Europe had been aided by direct and indirect bounties from the different Governments, which served as a great incentive to the industry. The output of sugar was in excess of domestic requirements and a. Large quantity had to be marketed abroad. In many instances the sugar was sold in foreign countries at a price less than the domestic price in the country of production. The production of beet sugar had risen to an equal with and in some years had exceeded the production of cane sugar.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Society of Sugar Cane Technologists Proceedings, 1946-1950 American Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, April 18, 1946. The accompanying graph shows the percentage of the Louisiana sugarcane acreage in disease-resistant varie ties for the period 1928 to 1945. From it, it is apparent that since 1930 marked progress has been made in devel oping varieties with greater resistance to mosaic, root rot and stubble deterioration. With respect to mosaic, this has been accomplished largely through the replacement of the susceptible P. O. J. Varieties, and more recently Co. 281, with resistant ones, leaving Co. 290 as the only susceptible variety that is now widely grown. In the western section of the district, where this variety predominates, mosaic generally has been well controlled in it through roughing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Technology of Beet Sugar Manufacture: A Textbook Describing the Theory and Practice of the Process of Manufacture Facture of Beet Sugar After the fall Of Napoleon the European ports were again opened to the cheap sugar from the tropics, produced by slave labor, and the newly established beet sugar industry, because of the poor quality of the beets and the imperfect processes of manufacture, was unable to hold its own and only one factory survived the recon struction period of the Napoleonic wars. Up to this time no attempt had been made toward improving the quality Of the beet, and the beets then used contained only 5 to 6 per cent sugar and were Of low purity. In 1821 Felouze. Through researches in plant breeding, was able to increase the sugar content of the beets, and this, together with high sugar prices, caused the industry to make such rapid progress that by 1836 there were 436 sugar factories in Operation. From 1836 to 1870 the growth Of the industry in Europe and particularly in France, because Of the attitude Of legislation, was more or less spasmodic, but from 1870 to 1914, or the beginning Of the World War, con tinnel progress was made, and in 1914 the world's production Of beet sugar was tons as compared with a cane sugar pro duction Of tons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World's Sugar Supply: Its Sources and Distribution Very seldom has it been possible to trace clearly the original home of any food staple, or to find the paths by which it was carried over the civilized world. This is the case with cane sugar. Here and there, in a chance allusion by some writer, we get a glimpse of the roads over which the knowledge of sugar came down to us, but these are only rare flashes at long intervals. Appar ently Gangetic India had long known the sugar cane and the art of boiling sugar from it. The Chinese acquired the knowledge from India in the first half of the seventh century. However, sugar cane must have been grown in Egypt at the same time that its growth was developing in India, for it is known that the Chinese, in the Mongol period, acquired the art of sugar refining from Egyptian visitors. It was the Arabs, the transmitters of more than one priceless practical art, who finally brought the culti vation of the sugar cane to the knowledge of western Europe. They probably acquired the knowledge of its cultivation from the locality about Khuzistan. In Persia, and in the days of their westward march they carried it to Morocco and even into Spain.

Book Beet Sugar Manufacture  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Beet Sugar Manufacture Classic Reprint written by H. Claassen and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beet-Sugar Manufacture The aim of this book is to refresh the memory of technical sugar men on the more important things observed in the conduct of a sugar-factory; it may serve, furthermore, as a guide for beginners in practical sugar-work, and as a basis for further studies. It is in no way intended that the book will replace any of the text-books or handbooks that treat of the manufacture of beet-sugar; in fact it is assumed that the reader already has a general knowledge of sugar-chemistry and sugar-technique. In such books, however, that which is of utmost importance to the practical sugar man, namely, the theoretical principles upon which the methods of working depend and the many rules, tricks, and numerous other little things learned by experience which are so necessary for the proper conduct of a sugar-factory, is either incompletely treated or vaguely distributed throughout the other subject-matter, lost practical sugar men, therefore, will find but little that is new in these pages, but it cannot be distasteful to them to have the matter briefly summarized so that they can look it over during the long pause between two campaigns. A book concerning the sugar-industry can be written only by one who has himself had practical experience. Consequently the author will be pardoned and not considered narrow-minded for having stated in many cases merely his own experience; at all events he has tried to make his treatment of the subject as objective as possible and with reference to the experience of others in so far as he has learned it from personal contact and from the literature.
