Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018029519A1] The present invention generally relates to the use of a quaternary ammonium salt and a cationic (co)polymer to clarify sugar cane juice during the production of crystal or raw sugar. The invention also refers to a new process for producing crystal or raw sugar from sugar cane juice. More specifically, the present invention describes a process for improving the phosphatation clarification of crystal or raw sugar by adding a quaternary ammonium salt and a cationic (co)polymer before, during or just after the clarification step. A kit comprising a quaternary ammonium salt and a cationic (co)polymer is also provided.
