Sugar

The extraction of sugar from sugar beets and sugar cane is continuously monitored. We offer filter papers for the clarification of sugar extracts, which have

  • a high filtration speed combined with high retention of particles, and 
  • a smooth or creped surface

Target Application:

Sample preparation for inline control of sugar isolation processes.
Analysis of ingredients, contaminants and microbiological quality according to the § 64 Para.1 and 2  LFBG German law for food, feed and utensils.
The average ash content of our quantitative papers is 0,004%, and 0,002% ash of the hardened quantitative papers - the purest paper in the filter market.

- Clarification of dried beet pulp extracts
- Filtration of beet juice after addition of lead acetate for polarimetric sugar determination
- 3459 is recommended for Venema unit according to the sodium acetate method

Target User:

  • QC departments of producing industries in the area of sugar and sirup
  • independent institutes
  • governmental control labs for food&beverages
