Estimate of Recoveries and Losses For Various Molasses Purities

Uploaded by

rudiskw456

This document contains estimates of recoveries and losses for sugar processing with varying molasses purities. It shows that processing 100 tons of juice with 86% purity over 3 boilings can produce 88.07 tons of sugar and 30.86 tons of molasses at a final molasses purity of 40%. Lower molasses purity is achieved with more boilings but also results in higher sugar recovery and lower losses to molasses.
