Our team of experienced engineers, process and sugar chemists will ensure these targets are achieved with our bespoke processes engineering designs which include:
- Polymer preparation and dosing systems
- Juice clarification
- Syrup clarification
- Filtrate clarification
- Juice evaporation
- Energy and mass balance
- Drying
- Melting
- Affination
- Liquor Clarification
- Scum desweetening
- Deep Bed Filtration
- Decolourisation
- Pressure Filtration
Reduce turbidity, suspended solids and colour.
Based on your needs TL's engineers will provide standard or custom designed processes for your sugar mill and refinery.
Reduce turbidity, ash and suspended solids.
The deep bed filter (DBF), removes suspended solids from the clarified liquor by passing it through a mix bed of specially selected media.
Deep Bed Filter (DBF)
The Deep Bed Filter removes suspended solids from clarified liquor by passing it through a mixed bed of specially selected media. As the liquor passes through the media the suspended solids are retained and periodically are flushed out.
Clarified liquor is pumped through the filter and as suspended solids become trapped a pressure develops across the media bed. When the pressure reaches a preset value the filter enters a regeneration cycle.
Once the regeneration cycle is completed, the filter is ready to be taken on-line for filtration.
The control of the filter(s) is fully automatic and requires minimal supervision. A microprocessor based central programmable logic controller monitor and controls each complete filter cycle.
- The filtration bed does not require replacement
- No filter aid
- No sugar loss
- High filtration rates
- Fully automatic operation, no labour requirement
Higher yields, lower steam consumption.
TL Technology have high efficiency heat distribution and control pan systems for the raw house and the refinery.
Pan Design
TL's "Batch Pan Automations System" identifies those operational conditions that balance sugar quality and utility usage during the crystallisation process, resulting in the benefits listed below.
Operational conditions are automatically managed by the control system which ensures the crystallisation process is consistently operated at is optimum level of performance.
The seeding point and the formation of grain are critical activities which our system closely controls during the pan cycle. These are managed by the pan level instruments and brix density profile resulting in increased capacity in crystallisation and reduced water consumption.
- Minimised energy usage
- Reduced reliance on operators
- Improved purging of the massecuite
- Increased capacity in the crystallisation plant
- Reduced water usage in pan boiling cycle and water wash
Colour reduction.
TL Technology's engineers will help design the best system to produce a low colour speciality sugar or low colour sucrose solution including bottlers MIS.
