The given diagram briefly describes the process of producing sugar with the raw material is sugar cane.
It can be seen that there are a total of 3 main steps in this production, including harvesting, crushing and separating. It is also evident that sugarcane is the only ingredient used throughout the manufacturing process.
At the first step, sugarcane are planted for 12-18 months until they are large enough to be harvested and the harvesting is carried out by hand harvesting with the sickles or using industrial reapers. Next, the sugarcane after being harvested is crushed in a press to extract the juice, which will be passed through a filter made of limestone to remove any unwanted residue. The next stage involves evaporation, in which the filtered sugar cane juice is put under heat and therefore thickens into a syrup. The next stage is placing filtered sugarcane juice under heat and thus condensed into a syrup. That mixture is transferred to a centrifuge, which rotates at a very high speed so that the sugar crystals separate from the liquid due to the difference in density. In the final step, the sugar is dried and cooled, ready for packaging and sale.
