Advanced computer simulation of sugar factories - SysCAD : revised final report 2010/040
Broadfoot, R; McFeaters, J; Stephenson, R (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2014)This project aims to develop a highly adaptable 'whole of sugar factory' process model that includes the capability to incorporate a variety of adjunct processing options e.g. cogeneration, biofuel production from molasses, ... -
Determine the optimum tube dimensions for Robert evaporators through experimental investigations and CFD modelling: final report 2012/054
Broadfoot, R (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2017)Experimental investigations were undertaken in a single tube pilot evaporator for nine tubes of three different lengths and three different diameters to determine the optimum tube dimensions for Robert evaporators. ... -
Develop a blueprint for the introduction of new processing technologies for Australian factories: final report 2015/043
Broadfoot, R; Rackemann, DW; Moller, DJ (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2018)Several overseas factories are using technologies that reduce their process steam consumptions to very low levels, e.g. lower than 32% on cane, which are much lower than achieved by the most steam efficient Australian ... -
Developing a new methodology for competency based training courses for shift supervisors in sugar factories : revised final report QUT032
Broadfoot, R (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2014)The provision of effective training of supervisors and operators is essential if sugar factories are to operate profitably and in an environmentally sustainable and safe manner. The benefits of having supervisor and operator ... -
Evaluate the suitability of the fixed element crystalliser for widespread adoption in Australian sugar factories : final report 2019/202
Gregg, M; Lowrey, M; Broadfoot, R; Abdi, I (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2020)The fixed-element design of a horizontal cooling crystalliser is relatively new to the Australian industry and the installation at Broadwater Mill for the 2017 season proved to be an economical solution to refurbish the ... -
Evaluation of the Neltec Colour Q for measuring the purity of magma from C centrifugals : final report 2018/201
Pike, D; Broadfoot, R; King, S; Woods, P (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 ... -
Implement supervisory/advisory control of pan and fugal stations : final report 2010/038
Broadfoot, R; Dodd, R (Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)
