Flocculants
Removal of impurities (soluble and insoluble non-sugar compounds) from cane sugar juice by clarification is an essential part of the process of raw sugar manufacture.
Rapid flocculation and sedimentation of suspended particles in primary cane sugar juice is achieved using high molecular weight anionic and cationic polymers. These increase the settling rate, thus reducing the retention time in the clarification stage and improving the colour of the sugar finally produced.
KL Solutions Flocculants are advantageously used in sugar juice clarification. Rapid flocculation and sedimentation of suspended particles in primary cane sugar juice is achieved using a high molecular weight anionic polymer flocculant.
KL Solutions water-soluble polyelectrolytes of high molecular weight have high flocculating power towards suspended solids. Designed to excel in critical areas of composition, molecular weight distribution and ionic charge, they provide efficient clarification of sugarcane juice and are available in solid, liquid and emulsion forms.
Benefits
- Increased throughput from existing equipment
- Reduced capital expenditure on clarifiers
- Lower retention time, lower heat loss and minimum sugar inversion
- Reduced time consumption and minimum decomposition
KL Solutions flotation Aid
This is a high efficiency flocculant(polyelectrolyte)are designed for improving clarification and filtration of sugar remelt / syrup in sugar mills and sugar refineries. It is effective over a wide range of pH and has great flexibility in coping with fluctuations in operating conditions because of its remarkable flotation properties.
- Lower retention time
- Reduced mud volume
- Low pol content in filtrate
- Increased throughput from the clarifier
- Improved sugar remelt/syrup quality
- Higher filtration rates
