Energy: evolution of a commitment to diversify the sector
Learnings, achievements and challenges of energy cogeneration in the Colombian sugar cane agroindustry. In 1997 Incauca made the first sale, providing 10 MW of energy
Cane waste, raw material to generate energy
Taken from: https://www.portafolio.co/ The project is led by the Sugar Cane Research Center (Cenicaña), whose task allows the country to be on the international radar. In it
Alternatives to reduce energy consumption in the factory injection and rejection system
In addition to sugar and ethanol, today energy cogeneration occupies an important place in the Colombian sugarcane agroindustry. The figures reveal it: according to XM SA,
Updating of management and maintenance tools in sucro-energy mills
More than 20 representatives of seven sugar mills participated in the seminar on “Application of reliability and information management tools for effective maintenance” in sugar-energy mills
Cenicaña, in a professional update seminar on cogeneration and thermal efficiency
The course was guided by a doctor in chemical engineering and a saccharotechnical expert, linked to the Obispo Colombres Experimental Station in Argentina.
Physical-mechanical processes
In this research area of the Cenicaña Factory Process Program, unit operations are treated where their fundamental principle of operation is the action of a force.
Physical-chemical processes
Obtaining sugar from the juice extracted from the cane includes a series of stages where the sucrose is extracted and purified. In this process, which is seen
Cane juice extraction process
The operations for reception, adaptation and grinding of cane are investigated, evaluating the processes and equipment involved in these operations in search of improvement in operational and energy performance.
