Given figures explain the production cycle for creating sugar from the sugar cane.
Overall, the industrial process of extracting sugar from sugar cane has 7 important steps.
The physical steps of the industrial process of extracting sugar from sugar cane start with growing the sugar cane, which takes 12 to 18 months. The following step is harvesting the fully grown sugar canes, either using trucks equipped with farming blades or raw human power. After all the sugar canes are collected, the next step is crushing them into juice.
The chemical parts start with purifying the juice with the help of the limestone filter. Following the purification, we will now obtain syrup by evaporating the juice in a big metal pot called an evaporator using heat. After evaporating the syrup, the next step is applying the centrifuge step so that we can successfully separate the sugar crystals from the syrup. Lastly, with some cooling time and drying, sugar is ready to use.
