Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the features and benefits of vertical crystallisers and massecuite reheaters, highlighting their importance in the sugar industry for optimizing molasses exhaustion and enhancing sugar recovery.
Specifications:
  • Vertical crystallisers are available with stationary straight tube elements up to 450 m³ and mobile tube layers up to 700 m³.
  • Massecuite reheaters have a high heating surface up to 1,300 m² and are designed to avoid sugar losses.
Performance:
  • High heat transfer coefficient with a low temperature difference between massecuite and water (10°C).
  • 1% to 2% sugar extraction recovery with low electricity consumption (0.03 to 0.05 kWh per ton of cane).
  • Optimized sugar quality with rapid heating without crystal dissolving.
Installation and Maintenance:
  • Self-supporting design with a reduced footprint and a height/diameter ratio of 3.5 minimum.
  • Automated operation with minimal maintenance requirements.
  • Simple construction with no moving parts, ensuring ease of maintenance.
Technological Features:
  • Vertical crystallisers offer S/V ratios from 0.9 to 2.2 m²/m³ and are available with cooler heating tubes.
  • Drive options include gearbox drive, planetary gearbox, and worm wheel.
Benefits:
  • Low operating cost and ease of use.
  • High yield and productivity with enhanced safety and hygiene.
Conclusion: Fives Cail's crystallisers and reheaters are designed to maximize molasses exhaustion and improve centrifuge performance, making them a preferred choice in the sugar industry.
