The diagram below shows the manufacturing process for making sugar from sugar cane. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparison where relevant

The given process illustrates how to manufacture

sugar

from

sugar

cane.

Overall

, the production involves seven steps, including harvesting, crushing, and separating. It is

also

evident that manufacturing

sugar

from

sugar

cane is a capital-intensive process despite using only one ingredient. In the cultivation process,

sugar

canes take 1 to 1.5 years to grow before being ready for harvest.

This

stage could be performed in two different methods, either manually using a sickle or by an industrial reaper. Once collected, the

sugar

canes are machine-pressed to extract the juice.

This

juice is

then

passed through a filter made of limestone to remove unwanted dirt and impurities.  The next stage involves evaporation, in which the purified juice is heated to evaporate the water and thickens into a syrup.

Subsequently

, a centrifuge, which rotates at a very high speed, separates the crystals from the condensed liquid

due to

differences in density. In the final step, the

sugar

is dried and cooled, ready for packaging and sale.
