Subject field(s)
  • Food Industries
  • Sugar Industry
CONT

High-test molasses (H.T.M.) is not a true molasses, as it is the mother liquor from which no crystalline sugar has been removed by centrifugation, but which has been treated with acid to reduce crystallization.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Industrie de l'alimentation
  • Sucrerie (Industrie de l'alimentation)
DEF

Liquide sortant de la turbine traitant la masse cuite.

CONT

Pour activer la cristallisation, le sirop est concentré dans d'énormes chaudières qui l'amènent à l'état de sursaturation. Les premiers cristaux de sucre apparaissent au sein du sirop dense, qu'on appelle «la masse cuite». Celle-ci est alors déversée dans des malaxeurs. En se refroidissant, les cristaux achèvent de grossir dans une eau mère appelée «égout».

Key term(s)
  • eau mère de sucrerie
