First, the beets are cleaned in a beet washer. Then, a machine called a slicer is used to cut the beets into long strips that look like shoestring potatoes or noodles. The beet noodles are sent through a machine called a diffuser or extractor. Hot water is mixed with the beets to dissolve and remove the sugar from the beet noodles. The water and sugar juice are saved, and this solution is called "raw juice." ... The raw juice is treated with lime and carbon dioxide gas to clean the mixture again. It is sent through a big, round filter to clean it and remove other non-sugars. The raw juice goes into a series of big tanks called evaporators where some of the water is boiled off. At this point, the mixture contains more sugar than water. It is a thick-like syrup and is again filtered to make sure it is very clean. 3, record 11, English, - raw%20juice

La remolacha se trocea mediante unos aparatos denominados "molinos cortarraices", dando lugar a unas finas tiras llamadas "cosetas". La "coseta" se somete a una contracorriente de agua que penetra en su fibra y extrae la sacarosa, tras lo cual se obtiene el "jugo de difusión"... El "jugo de difusión" está compuesto por el azúcar extraído de la remolacha y por otros elementos "no azúcares", por lo que debe pasar por un proceso de depuración para la eliminación de estas sustancias. 1, record 11, Spanish, - jugo%20de%20difusi%C3%B3n
