Sulphitation of juice is the key to the entire process of a Sugar plant, be it for better quality of sugar or reduced viscosity in molasses and massecuite. A good design needs to incorporate pre and shock liming as well as, make the equipment capable of dealing with refractory juices. The SS juice Sulphiter has been designed with unmatched innovative features to take care of all the requirements of good sulphitation. Main features are:
•
pH of juice is observed at three places during the process and the addition of lime and SO2 gas is adjusted accordingly, thus process control is better.
•
Pre-liming or Pre-sulphitation and shock liming and sulphitation is carried out as per the process requirement and juice quality.
•
The flow of gas and juice is streamlined for maximum circulation and then proper mixing with15 fold circulation without stirrer on air lift principle is ensured.
•
Design is flexible to adopt different processes. i.e.pre-liming or pre-sulphitation or simultaneous liming and sulphitation etc.
•
No moving parts and hence very low maintenance.
•
No power requirement.
•
Compact design.
•
Less scaling in evaporators due to less rise in CaO content from mixed juice to clear juice.
