The activities carried out in this laboratory are oriented towards the development and validation of laboratory-scale proposals that allow maximizing the efficiency of the stages of the sugar production process such as clarification and crystallization.
The main equipment that the laboratory has are:
Brookfield DV-I + Viscometer
Incubation area.
Equipment used for the characterization of materials (juices, honeys, masses and flocculants) in terms of viscosity.
Jar kit and shaking kit
Equipment used in laboratory tests to evaluate inputs such as flocculants, bleaching products, among others, in the juice clarification and molasses stage.
