Author Description

Excerpt from Proceedings of the 1974 Technical Session on Cane Sugar Refining Research: Cherry Hill, N. J., October 20-22, 1974 In the last quarter of 1955, a report (19) was issued giving preliminary data for the amount of sucrose retained by bone char that has been used for sugar adsorption. The method used for sucrose determination in this report was considered somewhat crude, and shortly a much more refined method, based on pyrolysis, was developed. The new procedure showed that as much as of sucrose per weight of char may be retained by good quality char. This informa tion has helped fill in the gap of unknown sugar loss.
