Treatment of Sugar Factory Waste Waters
Huss, L.  1979.  A high efficiency two step biological treatment process provides many advantages in handling the problems associated with treating sugar factory waste waters. The process is capable of more than 99% reduction of BOD5 and provides a positive energy balance through the production of methane gas. The process eliminates…
The Potential of Liquid Chromatography for the Analysis of Sugarcane
Wong-Chong J. and Martin, F.A.  1979.  Recent developments in the area of pressurized liquid chromatography (HPLC) have made possible the rapid analysis of sugar mixtures with minimum sample preparation, of getting accurate estimates of sucrose, reducing sugars and deterioration products in one analysis. The…
The Effect of Bagasse Furnace Ash on the Growth of Plant Cane
Pan, Y.C., Eow, K.L., et.al.  1979.  The paper described the experiment carried out in utilizing the bagasse furnace ash (BFA) as a soil ameliorant to improve the poor physical properties of the heavy textured, acidic clay soil at the Sugarcane Experiment Station, Gula Perak Berhad, Patai Remis, West Malaysia. The…
The Control of Adiabatic and Non-Adiabatic Dryers
Paschhold, H.A.  1979.  This paper discusses the driving force, moisture control and the control system of adiabatic batch and continuous dryers and the non-adiabatic steam-tube dryers. The Control of Adiabatic and Non-Adiabatic Dryers.  Sugar Journal, October 1979:7-12.
Sugars in Molasses
Clarke, M.A. and Brannan, M.  1979.  A high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) method developed for sucrose, glucose and fructose has been applied to a variety of molasses samples. Techniques for applying HPLC analysis to molasses are discussed. The results are compared to results by classical analytical methods. The observation that glucose/fructose…
