The process of producing sugar (sucrose) from dates
The purpose of the process of producing sugar (sucrose) from dates is to extract sucrose from dates by ethanol. Dates harvested from early September, which has about 19% sucrose, are usually used. Due to the large amount of reducing sugars, ash and color compounds, common methods of producing sugar or sugarcane can not be used here. In this extraction method, dates are cooked in a ratio of 1: 1 by volume in water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 1.5-1 hours. The resulting leachate is filtered and collected by vacuum filter.
next level : It is then concentrated in vacuum boilers at a temperature of 50 ° C. Concentrated nectar enters the cooling systems with the ability to flow, and by adding ethyl alcohol in a ratio of 108, the excess material is precipitated. The resulting date juice enters the second stage of the concentrator after passing through a filter. At this stage, 97% ethanol is added to the concentrated juice in a ratio of 1:12. Concentration is then performed for 1 hour at 50 ° C. After cooling, the resulting date juice is transferred to the crystallization stage by a pump and at this stage 1.% glucose is added.
The cooling rate is adjusted so that the material temperature rises from 98 ° C to 28 ° C in 70 hours. When cooling about 30 ° C A honey-like substance is obtained which is heated to 38 ° C and then the small sugar crystals are separated by a centrifuge. After this operation, the existing liqueur evaporates to separate the alcohol from glucose and sucrose. In addition to the separation of sucrose, it is possible to produce glucose and fructose in liquid form, and the resulting fiber can be used for animal feed.
