Evaluation of laser produced stainless steel screens
(BSES, 1987)In an effort to develop a more acceptable alternative to the chrome-nickel screens presently in use, BSES approached the CSIRO Division of Manufacturing Technology in Sydney towards the end of 1985 to ascertain the feasibility ... -
Evaluation of the Neltec Colour Q for measuring the purity of magma from C centrifugals : final report 2018/201
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2019)In Australian factories one operator typically manages the high grade fugalling, sugar drying and low grade (C) fugalling stations. The C fugals are managed least effectively as there is no process instrumentation to monitor ... -
Evaporator liquor brix sensor : final report 2017/003
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2019)A Pro-M-tec Ultrasonic Time of Flight (TOF) sensor was installed for trials at Victoria Mill in 2017. The TOF instrument calculates the brix of a liquid using the measurement of temperature and velocity of an ultrasonic ... -
Factors affecting the sugar content of sugar cane in the wet tropics of Queensland: statistical analysis of ccs data at Babinda and Tully
(BSES, 1972)In the wet tropics, the sugar content of crops is usually below the state's average and is a critical factor in farm economy, particularly during years of low sugar prices. This aspect of sugar production has been the ... -
Factory scale trials with laser produced stainless steel screens : Bingera mill 1987 season
(BSES, 1987)The main objective in the tests carried out at Bingera was to compare the performance of two adjacent, similar, BMA K1000 centrifugals, one of which was fitted with a new set of standard Cr-Ni screens, and the other with ... -
Fibre characteristics of cane - results of measurements carried out at Bundaberg during 1986 season
(BSES, 1986)During September, 1986 the decision was made to test for extreme fibre characteristics all cane varieties which are prospective Q canes, in the last season before release. The purpose of these tests was to obtain some ... -
Fibre characteristics of cane - results of measurements carried out at Bundaberg during 1987 season
(BSES, 1987)During September, 1987 a total of twenty-three samples of cane were tested for extreme fibre characteristics at BSES in Bundaberg. The main purpose of this testing program, which was introduced during 1986 season, is to ... -
Finite element and durability modelling of roller shells and shafts : final report JCU6S
(BSES, 1998)The technology that has been adopted by the Australian raw sugar industry for roller shells and shafts has evolved over the past 40 years. Apart from Crawford's theoretical calculations on shell design and Cullen's factory ... -
Flocculation and sedimentation of slow settling mud and mud cake conditioning : final report 2012/056
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)The project aimed to improve the flocculation and sedimentation of slow settling mud, and reduce the pol/moisture content of mill mud by: Identifying key parameters which are associated with difficult to clarify soils; ... -
Hardening of raw sugar : SRDC final report CSR8S
(CSR, 1991)Australia has a long term contract to supply the Soviet Union with raw sugar. While the contract seeks to avoid delivery in the coldest months, the long transport from Black Sea ports and possible delays can lead to ... -
High grade sugar recovery using a continuous centrifuge : final report BSC25
(Bundaberg Sugar company Limited, 1990)This project report describes the conversion of an existing batch high grade centrifuge to a continuous unit (termed a hybrid fugal) and an assessment of its performance characteristics. -
Hygroscopic water in sugarcane : final report 114
(CSR, 1990)At the 1989 Workshop on Cane Analysis conducted by the Sugar Research Council it emerged that the best technical method of cane analysis for the Australian industry was the direct cane analysis method (DCA) employing ... -
Impact of chopper harvesting on the translation of field CCS to factory realised CCS : SRDC final report SD01007
(BSES, 2001)This project was designed to investigate the impact of chopper harvesting on CCS at the mill relative to measured CCS levels of cane in the field, as part of the reason behind declining CCS. Background for the project ... -
Implement supervisory/advisory control of pan and fugal stations : final report 2010/038
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015) -
Improved batch pan monitoring, control and optimization - a soft sensor approach : SRDC final project JCU018
(SRDC, 2001)Cane sugar is manufactured in process vessels called vacuum pans, which are closely supervised by operating personnel, known as pan boilers. Traditionally, the pan boiler’s job has been made easier through the use of a ... -
Improved modelling of wet scrubbers : final report 2012/055
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)While wet scrubbers have high collection efficiency, operational problems associated with many wet scrubber installations reduce boiler steam output and, therefore, factory crushing rates. These problems include: -
Improved train safety through improved locomotive braking performance : SRDC final report QUT019
(Sugar Research Institute, 2009)The safe operation of the cane railway, in the same way as for mainline railways, is gaining greater attention. One important aspect of safe operation is the ability to stop a train in an acceptable distance (or time). ... -
Improving CCS in the wet tropics via block-specific monitoring of nitrogen in cane delivered to the mill : final report CTA045
(SRDC, 2003)This project seeks to implement a scheme for monitoring the nitrogen status of all cane crops in a wet tropics mill district and aims to work with growers in the use of this information to improve CCS and reduce the ... -
Improving mill efficiency through rapid analysis methodologies : final report 2014/051
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)A rapid analysis system for measuring key constituents in sugarcane factory products has been developed using diode array (DA) near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic technology. Analysis of key constituents in prepared cane, ... -
