Modelling of sugar cane crushing
Cane sugar factories, while producing sugar and molasses, provide their own energy and power from the sugar cane biomass residue, are green house gas neutral and can export renewable electricity to the grid. The performance of the milling train in extracting juice and dewatering the biomass bagasse residue are key components of the operation. Understanding and modelling the process are seen as a way forward to improve the performance, for example by reducing the final bagasse moisture below the current levels.
