Specialty chemicals for use in refineries
Sugar and salt refineries process raw materials such as cane and beet sugar or raw salt to produce high-quality, consumer-friendly products. Refining involves a series of processes to remove impurities and unwanted components, purify and refine the final products. This is where specialty chemicals from KEBO come into play, such as the alkaline cleaner KEBOCLEAN ALU or the inhibitors of the LITHSOLVENT product range.
In addition, we offer other sugar crystallization products that increase efficiency, improve quality and maximize yields during the crystallization process:
For a for uniform sugar growth, we recommend our KEBO SLURRY. It is a ready-to-use mixture of finest, uniformly ground sucrose particles suspended in a highly viscous liquid. It thus guarantees particularly homogeneous crystal growth, which significantly increases the quality of the end product.
Our KEBOSOL CA und auch unser KEBOSOL RA reduce viscosity, which allows better mixing of the solution and thus improved crystal formation.
Color is one of the most important characteristics for the quality of sugar, as it is directly related to its purity. Coloring substances of the molasses and other impurities may remain on the sugar crystal after crystallization. KEBO COLOUR EXis able to destroy the color molecules and lighten the sugar during crystallization.
The products shown on our website are only a selection of our entire product range. There is no universal remedy for the rapid removal of impurities. Some can be removed well with alkaline agents, others better in the acidic range. The large variety of conceivable cleaning problems and the large number of additives, inhibitors and ready-to-use cleaning solutions offered by us make it advisable to obtain detailed advice before starting cleaning.
The same applies to inhibitors, defoamers, scale preventers, corrosion inhibitors, pickling inhibitors, etc. Depending on the plant, material, product and the type of boiler/cooling water is used, different individual challenges arise. We are well equipped for them.
Talk to us, we will be happy to help!
On request, we can analyze deposits in our laboratory and develop a cleaning strategy based on our many years of experience, taking into account the conditions on site.
