Concentration processes for the beet-sugar industry

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5565776
One part of the beet sugar processing plant operation, namely the juice concentration process, is presented. The concentration processes discussed could have applications in beet sugar processing plants other than juice concentration, but these are not considered. Basic energy considerations and concentration processes are discussed. The applicability of these concentration processes are considered for electrodialysis, freezing process, vapor recompression, and reverse osmosis. Three unsolicited proposals submitted to DOE are described briefly. (MHR)
