This government-issued reference volume compiles abridged abstracts of sugar-related patent specifications issued in Britain from 1663 to 1866, cataloguing inventions in sugar manufacture, purification, refining, and related apparatus. The entries, organized by date, inventor, and patent number, cover evaporation and heating, decolorization and filtration, drying and revival of charcoal, cane processing, heat transfer and control, and miscellaneous process improvements. Appendices include early patents and steam-engine adaptations for sugar work, an extensive index, and cross-references to journals and drawings. The work emphasizes efficiency, yield, and purity in sugar production, while serving as a metadata source for historical and legal research into sugar technology, filtration media, and refining equipment.
