Abstract (en)

In a mechanical process to remove water from pressed sugar beet cake, the novelty is that: (a) a suspension of salt or salts containing multivalent ions is introduced directly into the pressed cake; (b) the suspension is introduced in the middle section of the pressing process, after most of the water has been expelled; (d) the suspension is introduced in the middle of the cake layer; (e) when using a spindle press (1), the suspension is introduced at a number of points (12) delivered by a dosing pump (11); (f) the multivalent salt used is a 20 -60% suspension in dry matter of calcium sulphate; (g) the suspension is made by mixing chalk milk and sulphuric acid in a stoichiometric ratio, or by mixing dry plaster in a quantity of pressed water or fresh water; (h) the salt is added at a rate of 2 meq/100 g beet.
