Syrup Clarification System

cationic colour precipitant which removes colloidaldissolved colour from sugarcane juice prior to the separation of mud. It is used at a low dosages and added to the limed and sulphited juice emerging from the juice sulphitor. After addition of Rishlyte 8023, the limed and sulphited juice goes through the 'S' Juice Heater where the temperature is raised to about 103o-104oC. The flocculant is added at this stage at the entry of the clarifier. The clear juice emerging as supernatant of the clarifier has reduced colour to the extent of 30 - 60% depending on the nature of colour causing substances which finally translates into a minimum of 25 - 30% reduction in colour of sugar produced from this juice.
