The diagram illustrates how orange juice is produced from fresh oranges before it is sold in supermarkets.
Overall, the process is linear and consists of several stages, beginning with the transportation of fresh oranges to a factory and ending with the sale of the final product in supermarkets. Notably, after the juice is extracted, the process divides into two separate routes: one for fresh juice and another for concentrated juice.
Initially, fresh oranges are transported to a factory, where they are washed thoroughly. Following this, the oranges are processed in an extraction machine to produce juice. During this stage, the solid waste is removed and subsequently used as animal feed. After the extraction process, one stream of fresh juice is packaged immediately before being delivered to supermarkets.
Alternatively, the remaining fresh juice is transported by refrigerated trucks to an evaporation facility, where water is removed to produce concentrated juice. Once this stage is complete, the concentrate is canned and stored in a warehouse. It is then sent to another factory, where water is added to restore it to its original form. In the final stage, the juice is packaged and distributed to supermarkets for sale.
