Sugar & Starch

We support the sugar and starch industry with coordinated solutions for clarification, adsorption, and filtration across the entire process chain. Our products help remove non-sugars, colorants, and secondary constituents, ensuring stable product quality and efficient downstream processing.

Technical Applications

Juice
& syrup filtration
Color removal
& clarification
Polishing &
quality stabilization
Sterile & fine filtration
before filling

Areas of Application

Sugar production
(raw, white & liquid sugar)

We support sugar production with coordinated solutions for the clarification, decolorization, and filtration of raw juice, thin juice and thick juice, as well as liquid sugar. The goal is stable product quality, reduced color values, and reliable downstream processing through to filling.

  • Juice and thin juice filtration
  • Color removal & clarification
  • Polishing & quality stabilization
  • Sterile & fine filtration before filling
  • Activated carbon – NORIT® for decolorization and removal of organic secondary constituents from sugar solutions
  • Diatomaceous earth – Celite® as a filter aid for clarification and process filtration
  • Perlite – Harborlite® for permeable filter cakes and high filtration performance
  • Cellulose filter aids – VULCACEL® to support cake formation and filtration

Syrups
& specialty sugars

Processing of high-purity syrups and specialty sugars through targeted clarification, adsorption, and polishing steps. Focus on low color values, clear appearance, and stable product quality.

  • Clarification & fine filtration of syrups
  • Adsorptive color and odor removal
  • Polishing of high-purity products
  • Sterile & safety filtration
  • Activated carbon – NORIT® for color correction, purification, and removal of unwanted secondary constituents
  • Diatomaceous earth – Celite® for clarification and fine filtration of syrups
  • Perlite – Harborlite® especially for filtration of viscous media
  • Filter cartridges – Vulcostar Clear for downstream fine and polishing filtration

Starch
& starch derivatives

Filtration and product treatment in starch and glucose syrup production to remove proteins, turbidity, and secondary constituents. Our solutions ensure consistent quality and stable processes in downstream processing.

  • Starch and glucose syrup filtration
  • Removal of proteins & turbidity
  • Polishing & quality stabilization
  • Final & safety filtration
  • Diatomaceous earth – Celite® for solid-liquid separation and clarification filtration
  • Perlite – Harborlite® for high flow rates and media with high solids loading
  • Activated carbon – NORIT® for decolorization and purification of starch hydrolysates and products made from them
  • Cellulose filter aids – VULCACEL® to improve filter cake structure and process filtration
