Non-centrifugal cane sugar (NCS) is the technical name given to traditional raw sugar obtained by evaporating water from sugarcane juice. NCS is internationally recognized as a discrete and unique product by the FAO [1] since 1964 and by the World Customs Organization (WCO) since 2007. WCO defines NCS as "cane sugar obtained without ...
Rich, organic soil, abundant water and sunshine, and the warming influence of Lake Okeechobee are the primary reason sugarcane farmers are located in the area. In 2010, the state's raw sugar crop was valued at more than $2 billion in economic activity [ 9 ] making it one of Florida's top five most economically valuable field crops.
A sugar cane mill is a factory that processes sugar cane to produce raw sugar [1] or plantation white sugar. [2] Some sugar mills are situated next to a back-end refinery, that turns raw sugar into (refined) white sugar. [3] The term is also used to refer to the equipment that crushes the sticks of sugar cane to extract the juice. [4]
Sugarcane is the most widely produced primary crop in the world. Sugarcane, a perennial tropical grass, exhibits a unique growth pattern characterized by lateral shoots emerging at its base, leading to the development of multiple stems. These stems typically attain a height of 3 to 4 meters (approximately 10 to 13 feet) and possess a diameter ...

Pressure canning is the only safe home canning method for meats and low-acid foods. This method uses a pressure canner — similar to, but heavier than, a pressure cooker . A small amount of water is placed in the pressure canner and it is turned to steam, which without pressure would be 212 °F (100 °C), but under pressure is raised to 240 ...
Vinasse is a byproduct of the sugar or ethanol industry. [1] Sugarcane or sugar beet is processed to produce crystalline sugar, pulp and molasses. The latter are further processed by fermentation to ethanol, ascorbic acid or other products. Juice sugarcane can also be processed directly by ethanol fermentation.
