Abstract

Method for the preparation of white sugar of commercial quality from raw beet sugar, including the following operations:
  • a) microfiltration or ultrafiltration of the juice, after separating the organic and mineral particles whose size is above 50 microns, using membranes whose size is between 5000 MWCO and 0.5 micron;
  • b) juice sweetening;
  • c) juice concentration in multi-effect evaporators;
  • d) cooling crystallisation of the juice thus obtained;
  • e) separation and washing of the crystals.
