Equipment Designs
EQUIPMENT DESIGNS Equipment designs and manufacturing drawings are offered for a range of sugar processing equipment as detailed below: x Shredders / Cane Knives – Heavy Duty x Diffusers (Cane and Bagasse) x Juice Heaters x Vapour Heaters (Direct Contact type) x Evaporators x Kestner type x Robert type x Entrainment Separators (Vertical Chevron – Internal & External) x Condensers for Evaporators & Pans (Internal & External) x Batch Vacuum Pans & Stirrers x Continuous Vacuum Pans x Vertical Crystallisers x Massecuite Reheaters x Remelters x Sugar Driers x Sugar Refining Equipment x Direct White Sugar process x Rotary Distribution System x Fluegas Scrubbers x Miscellaneous Equipment Tongaat Hulett Sugar Equipment Designs Shredders / Cane Knives (Heavy Duty) The Tongaat Hulett heavy duty shredder is a robust swing hammer pulveriser. The design incorporates high operating efficiency, low maintenance costs and resistance to damage in service. The patented rotor design gives overlapping coverage of the full shredder width with reversible swing hammers. The shredders have been installed worldwide for the last 25 years and are reliable and proven. The rupturing of the cane cells by the shredder leads to high extractions being obtained in both milling trains and diffusers. Cane & Bagasse Diffusers The Tongaat Hulett Diffuser is a variant of the moving bed diffuser. The basic design is a counter current contactor where juice is pumped (with a high percentage of recycle) onto a moving bed of prepared cane between 1.5 and 1.8 meters deep contained in a vessel approximately 60 meters long and divided into 10 to 14 stages. Typically the diffuser would have a working width between 6 and 12 meters. -

Factors Affecting Sugarcane Production by Small-Scale Growers
agriculture Article Factors Affecting Sugarcane Production by Small-Scale Growers in Ndwedwe Local Unicipality, South Africa Nkosingiphile Samuel Zulu, Melusi Sibanda * and Bokang Stephen Tlali Department of Agriculture, University of Zululand, KwaDlangezwa 3886, South Africa * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +27-(0)-35-902-6068 Received: 3 May 2019; Accepted: 12 June 2019; Published: 2 August 2019 Abstract: Sugarcane is an important crop worldwide due to its many nutritional and economic uses. Small-scale sugarcane growers (SSGs) are a significant sector of sugarcane production in South Africa. However, the number of SSGs is noted to have declined from as early as the 2000s to the present time. As a result of the declining sugarcane production, there are now generally fewer SSGs. However, it is not clear cut as to what caused the decrease in sugarcane production by SSGs. The primary objective of this paper is to determine the factors affecting the sugarcane production by SSGs in Mona and Sonkombo in Ndwedwe Local Municipality. Data collection was through a well-structured questionnaire administered to 100 SSGs (that is, 50 respondents each from the study sites, namely Mona and Sonkombo) that were randomly selected. The paper employs descriptive statistics to describe farm characteristics, and a production function (Cobb–Douglass production function (CDPF)) analysis using the ordinary least squares (OLS) criterion to estimate the parameters affecting sugarcane production. Results show that late harvesting (by up to three (3) weeks), late fertiliser application (by up to six (6) months, and chemicals (Gramoxone) application (by up to five (5) months) were primary challenges facing SSGs, likely to result in declining sugarcane yield. -
