Synopsis
Excerpt from Science in Sugar Production: An Introduction to Methods of Chemical Control
Ugar being a product of vegetable life, the sugar factory may S be regarded as a machine for converting dissolved sugar into crystals; -01' for packing the produce of many acres of land into the smallest possible compass. As it is impossible to get more work out of a machine than is put into it, so it is impossible to get more sugar out of the factory than enters it in the form of raw material. Indeed, it is impossible to get as much, notwithstanding all improve ment in sugar machinery and the accumulated experience of centuries. Some sugar is invariably lost that is, not converted into crystals. The causes being various and sometimes Obscure.
Whereas some losses appear to be unavoidable, even when skilled labour and the best ~machinery are at hand, there are others due to the continued use Of inferior machinery or processes, and to ignorance or carelessness on the part Of employees, so that the total loss in many sugar factories is a serious Obstacle to economic production.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is for sugar producers and chemists seeking higher efficiency in sugar production. It begins with the importance of precise and accurate measurement in the sugar industry and how a lack of it can lead to inefficiencies and lost profit. This is followed by a breakdown of the various chemical tests and procedures that the author has found most effective, demonstrating how to perform them and how to interpret the results. The author believes that chemistry can and should be used to control every part of sugar production, from the field to the factory, and through the refining process. He provides practical instructions on how to test the soil to determine the most effective fertilizers, how to gauge the efficiency of the extraction process, and how to determine the amount of sugar lost during refining. By using these methods, sugar producers can optimize their operations and increase their profits. What makes this book particularly valuable is the author's emphasis on the importance of accuracy in each of the tests and procedures that he describes. With precise measurements and careful attention to detail, sugar producers can be confident that the results they obtain are reliable and can be used to make meaningful improvements to their operations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
