Sugar Syrup Tank

Sugar syrup used for sweetening of beverages is prepared in either a batch or continuous process. Plants often face challenges in maintaining a consistent sugar to water ratio. Variations can result in extended heating times and fluctuations in Brix levels.

Excessive steam pressure and temperature overshoots result in increased energy consumption and Brix variations. After preparation, sugar syrup is cooled, but often, the heat is discarded to the cooling tower This results in extra steam and time for hot water in the next batch, plus energy for cooling
