Problems solved by technology

CN105063247A uses ultrafiltration and nanofiltration membranes to decolorize sugarcane mixed juice and remove reducing sugar to reduce the color value of sugarcane mixed juice and improve its purity, reducing the generation of molasses; there are also activated carbon, microfiltration membranes or ion exchange resins for molasses To clarify the report of decolorization and refining, however, due to the complex composition of molasses, the removal and utilization of reducing sugar in molasses cannot be achieved

Abstract

The invention relates to a technology for refining cane molasses by multistage membrane filtration, comprising the following steps: decolouring clarification treatment is firstly carried out on molasses obtained after dilution and centrifugation by the use of an ultrafiltration membrane; an ultrafiltration concentrate is used for natural pigment extraction; an ultrafiltration permeate undergoes further decolouring and desalting through ion exchange resin and then enters a nanofiltration membrane system; after concentration and removal of impurities through the nanofiltration membrane, a nanofiltration concentrate continues to be recycled for crystallization and sugar production; a nanofiltration permeate undergoes reverse osmosis membrane concentration; a reverse osmosis concentrate is used for preparation of a functional sugary beverage; and a reverse osmosis permeate is used for dilution and filter wash of molasses during ultrafiltration membrane treatment process. By the technology provided by the invention, recycling and high-value utilization of molasses can be realized. The equipment is simple and is easy for continuous and automatic production. There is no chemical additive, and generation of waste molasses can be avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of refined molasses, and in particular relates to a process for refining sugarcane molasses by using multistage membrane filtration. Background technique [0002] Cane sugar molasses is a dark brown, viscous by-product produced by a sugar factory using sugar cane as raw material after pressing, clarification and purification of cane juice, filtration, evaporation and concentration, and crystallization of sugar. It is commonly known as orange juice. The yield of sucrose molasses is 2.5-3.0% of the raw material sugar cane, containing water, sugar, pigment, inorganic salt and other components, the total sugar content is about 50%, and the sugar hammer is greater than 60%. The sugars are mainly sucrose, glucose and fructose. [0003] Sucrose molasses is a widely used raw material, which can be used in chemical industry, light industry, food, medicine and building materials and other industries. Most of them ar...
