Records of Experiments at Fort Scott, Kansas, in the Manufacture of Sugar
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the manufacture of sugar from sorghum and sugar-cane using the processes of carbonatation and saturation. It places a heavy emphasis on the discussion of glucose per 100 sucrose as an indicator for the success of the manufacturing process. This book delves into the complexities of the sugar-making process, beginning with the cultivation of sorghum and sugar-cane before moving into the methods of extraction, cleaning, and processing the raw materials. The author details the development of machinery to aid in harvesting and milling before examining the chemical properties of the plants. Key themes include the importance of fully stripping the stalks of their blades and sheaths, using empirically established ratios of glucose to sucrose to determine optimal conditions for diffusion, and the use of lime, sulphurous acid, bi-sulphite, and phosphoric acid to extract the sugar. The book concludes that sorghum is well-suited to diffusion, especially when processed immediately post-harvest, and that the methods developed in this book can guide the development of a successful sorghum sugar industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
