Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to a process and unit for extracting a sweet juice from beets sugar or chicory, and more particularly a process and a unit extraction in which a battery of presses connected in series.
- the conventional methods of diffusion of the prior art employ extractors in which the cossettes are passed against the current sugar beets and a high temperature extraction solvent such as than hot water, the sugar being extracted by diffusion without there being pressing of the pods.
- the contact time must be relatively long, which requires large extractors length and maintain the extraction solvent such as water at a high temperature over the entire extraction area; for example at a temperature of the order of 70 ° C.
- the present invention therefore aims to provide a process for extracting a sweet juice from sugar beets or chicory requiring a less expensive infrastructure, a lower energy cost and which results in an absence of CO 2 release in the atmosphere at the level of purification.
- the process of the invention makes it possible to obtain a juice better quality than the diffusion methods of the prior art because requiring lower temperatures, the reduced oxidation of the raw material avoids dissolving unsweetened products undesirable and limits microbial development with for consequence of the very reduced levels of organic acids in juices sweets obtained.
- the invention also relates to a unit for producing a juice. sweet implementing the above process.
- the first press P1 is supplied with preferably by a vertical flared feed chute, size sufficient to allow a good force-feeding of the press and also a balance perfect as possible between the sugar concentration of the phase cellulosic and liquid phase (like presses later) with fresh Ro grating from sugar beets or chicory.
- a grater i.e. a raw material beet or chicory, reduced to medium-sized particles from 1.5 to 4 mm, unlike the commonly used caps, favors sugar extraction from cells by leaching / pressing operation.
- the rasp pressed in the P1 press and partially exhausted R1 is introduced, as before, by a vertical chute into the P2 press of row 2.
- the partially exhausted rasp from the P2 row 2 press is itself introduced in the press of immediately higher rank and so on until the last press Pn of the battery at the outlet of which we recover a completely exhausted Rn rasp for its storage and its transformation into animal feed.
- the sweet juice J1 from the first press is recovered, purified and treated in a conventional manner.
- it it is possible to use a simplified purification of the juice recovered J1 by coagulation / flocculation with a very small amount of lime (1 to 3 g / l), instead of conventional calcocarbon purification.
- the processed juice is then decanted and the clear juice obtained is, as is conventional, sulfited then filtered.
- the sludge extracted from the separator or decanter are filtered, for example by means of a precoat with scraping by micrometric advance knife and sugar removal cake by spraying a small amount of hot water and reintroduced into the first press P1 with the fresh grating Ro.
- the juice Ji of a press Pi of any rank i is recycled in the Ri-2 rasp from the Pi-2 press of rank i-2, except for the J1 juice from the first press P1.
- At least the juice J2 from the press P2 of rank 2 and recycled into fresh grating Ro is heated by means of a heater at a temperature of 60 to 80 ° C, depending on the climatic conditions outside, before being mixed with the fresh grating Ro to obtain a feed mixture of the first press P1 at a temperature of 20 to 40 ° C.
- This addition of liquid at high temperature causes a pasteurization of the surface of the fresh grating Ro.
- the extraction in the presses of the battery will be done at a temperature between 30 ° and 60 ° C, and if necessary can also reheat juices from presses of rows higher than means of heaters.
- the pressing temperatures of 30-60 ° C are much higher lower than the diffusion temperatures used with the units conventional extraction, which, added to a reduced extraction time and an absence of oxidation, limits the coloring of the extracted juices.
- An appropriate amount of water, possibly heated to the desired temperature, added upstream of the last Pn press, is generally between 20 and 50% by weight relative to the total weight of freshly grated Ro processed.
- the amount of water will obviously vary in depending on the extraction sought and the number of presses in the battery.
- the battery will include from 2 to 5 presses, better 3 to 4 presses.
- the extraction rate of each press expressed as a percentage of sugar extracted in the pressing juice by compared to the sugar contained in the mixture "grating + juice or water" introduced in the press is between 50 and 80%.
- Total battery extraction rate (extracted sugar / total sugar contained in fresh grating) is between 94 and 98.5% and depends well obviously the number of presses and the amount of water added before the last press.
- the sweet juice recovered J1 after evaporation and crystallization conventional, allows to obtain a quality sugar EEC n ° 2 or quality slightly lower depending on the quality of the raw material in the case a grated beetroot.
- the juice clear obtained is possibly discolored, preconcentrated and used to extract sweet compounds and insulin derivatives.
- the process of the invention is particularly suitable for small sweets that can process up to 3000 tonnes / day of grated beets or chicory.
- FIG. 2 shows an extraction unit according to the invention, comprising a battery of 3 twin-screw presses P1, P2, P3.
- the fresh Ro grating is introduced in the first P1 press by the vertical chute G1 where it is pressed.
- J1 sweet juice is routed from the press P1 by a line 1a to a tank B1, then from tank B1 via line 1b fitted with a pump to a separator S where we recover a clear juice which is transported for storage and treatment later by line 1c to a tank (not shown).
- Sludge separated from the juice J1 in the separator S are optionally recycled in the fresh grating Ro by a pipe 4.
- the R1 rasp, partially exhausted, from the first press P1 is routed through a pipe 2 provided with a means of advancing the grate R1 to the feed chute G2 of the press P2 where the R1 is pressed again.
- the J2 juice extracted in the P2 press is routed through line 2a in a tank B2 and then from tank B2 by a line 2b fitted with a pump, possibly through a heater H to bring the juice J2 to a temperature of 60-80 ° C, to be mixed with fresh grating Ro.
- the partially spent rasp R2 produced in the P2 press is routed through a pipe 3 provided with a means of advancement (pump) up to the feed chute G3 of the press P3.
- J3 juice extracted in the press P3 is conveyed by a line 3a in a tank B3, then from tank B3 via line 3b to line 2 to be mixed with the rasp R1 from the P1 press and feeding the P2 press.
- the grating R3 from the P3 press is conveyed, for example by a conveyor tape to a storage location.
- Water at a temperature of 60 ° C. is introduced by via a line 5 in line 3 to be mixed with the R2 grater from the P2 press.
- Sodium bisulfite is introduced via line 6 into the tray B3 to be mixed with the J3 juice from the P3 press and recycled in the R1 grating.

Abstract
Description
- une diminution notable des investissements nécessaires à l'épuration des jus et de la quantité de chaux nécessaire à cette épuration, ce qui se traduit par une absence de rejet de CO2 dans l'atmosphère au niveau de l'épuration;
- l'obtention d'un jus sucré de meilleure qualité que les jus de diffusion classiques, car l'extraction par pressage se fait à plus basse température avec une oxydation très réduite de la matière première, évite la mise en solution de certains sucres, limite les développements microbiens et une prise de coloration importante du jus au cours de la phase d'extraction;
- enfin, l'utilisation de températures plus basses améliore le bilan énergétique du procédé.
