Processing of sugar cane
Answers
Answer:
Sugarcane processing is focussed on the production of cane sugar (sucrose) from sugarcane. Other
products of the processing include bagasse, molasses, and filtercake. Bagasse, the residual woody fiber of the
cane, is used for several purposes: fuel for the boilers and lime kilns, production of numerous paper and
paperboard products and reconstituted panelboard, agricultural mulch, and as a raw material for production of
chemicals. Bagasse and bagasse residue are primarily used as a fuel source for the boilers in the generation
of process steam. Thus, bagasse is a renewable resource. Dried filtercake is used as an animal feed
supplement, fertilizer, and source of sugarcane wax. Molasses is produced in two forms: inedible for
humans (blackstrap) or as an edible syrup. Blackstrap molasses is used primarily as an animal feed additive
but also is used to produce ethanol, compressed yeast, citric acid, and rum. Edible molasses syrups are often
blends with maple syrup, invert sugars, or corn syrup.
Sugarcane is produced and harvested for two purposes: production of cane sugar and use as seed for
subsequent plantings. In the United States, sugarcane is produced, harvested, and processed in four states:
Florida, Louisiana, Texas, and Hawaii. Cane sugar is refined in eight states: Florida, Louisiana, Texas,
Hawaii, California, New York, Maryland, and Georgia.
