Abstract:
Sugar factories are a significant source of water pollution, particularly in developing countries such as Pakistan, where the sugar industry is the second largest after tanneries. The wastewater is disposed of untreated to the environment, since traditional wastewater treatment processes are capital-intensive, energy-demanding and complex in operation. The common approach is to use waste stabilization ponds or lagoons mostly operated on complete retention basis. This work is an attempt to highlight the possibility of effectively applying wastewater lagooning process utilizing the inherent organic contents of sugar factory wastewater with the aid of an algae-bacterial consortium (ABC) to investigate its capacity to utilize this resource to produce renewable fuel while de-polluting wastewater rather than it being a liability to be disposed of. A lagoon photo tank (LPT) resembling a prototype raceway lagoon was designed and used to carry out mass cell cultivation on a sugar-oriented medium for the assessment and inter-optimization of the process conditions such as temperature, incident light (IL), pH, dissolved oxygen (DO). The evaluation of the process performance was observed via the analyses of parameters such as chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon and cell mass growth. The first part of this study was related with the baseline assessment of LPT process conditions using distilled water as well as sucrose solution or sugar water to establish basis for a priori analysis of simulated sugar factory wastewater (SSFW) carried out in the second part. The suitability of the dosing of copolymer Polyacrylate polyalcohol was optimised through a series of trial runs to aid in the immobilization of mono or mixotrophic cultures of green algae Chlorella Vulgaris and bacteria Pseudomonas Putida at the surface of LPT in order to influence reduction in the organic concentration of SSFW. This research study has contributed to the knowledge base of the concerned area of study with respect to hitherto unknown application of copolymer Polyacrylate polyalcohol, which showed viable characteristics in the cultivation medium in terms of cell immobilization at the surface of LPT resulting in the formation of growth-conducive copolymer-algae matrices leading to the rapid growth of the cell mass with increased process efficiency. This process optimisation resulted in SSFW depollution by around 89% along with energetic biomass growth with a calorific value of 27 kJ g1 and at an optimum growth rate of 1.2 d1 suggesting towards the potential of copolymer addition in the system to enhance the efficiency of the organisms inducing optimum substrate utilization.

Abstract:
The sugar refinery process used by Lantic Sugar Ltd generates three by-products having characteristics that give them potential as soil amendments or fertilizers, particularly as a phosphorous and calcium source. Laboratory and a field trials were conducted in order to examine the changes in agronomic properties of soil produced by the application of these residues.
During the laboratory experiment, the by-products examined were spend bone char (SBC), filter-press mud (FPM), clarification scum (SCU) and a compost (COM) produced using FPM and SCU, where as in a field experiment, COM, SBC and a mixture (MIX) made of FPM and SCU, were compared to a commercial fertilizer (TSP) and non-treated soils.
The orthic humic gleysol of clay texture and low pH soil conditions in which the field experiment was conducted resulted in high P fixation of all the applied residues. Contrasts analysis showed that TSP behaved as the soils unamended P for all nutrient concentrations in tissues over two cropping seasons (1993 and 1994), on two crops, namely wheat (Triticum aestivum, L.) and corn (Zea mays, L.). Treatments (residues at different rates of application) did not significantly increase the Ca levels in COM plots nor did they increase the wet aggregate stability of soil under either crop.

Abstract:
This thesis reports on an investigation to develop an advanced and comprehensive milling process model of the raw sugar factory. Although the new model can be applied to both, the four-roller and six-roller milling units, it is primarily developed for the six-roller mills which are widely used in the Australian sugar industry. The approach taken was to gain an understanding of the previous milling process simulation model "MILSIM" developed at the University of Queensland nearly four decades ago. Although the MILSIM model was widely adopted in the Australian sugar industry for simulating the milling process it did have some incorrect assumptions. The study aimed to eliminate all the incorrect assumptions of the previous model and develop an advanced model that represents the milling process correctly and tracks the flow of other cane components in the milling process which have not been considered in the previous models. The development of the milling process model was done is three stages. Firstly, an enhanced milling unit extraction model (MILEX) was developed to access the mill performance parameters and predict the extraction performance of the milling process. New definitions for the milling performance parameters were developed and a complete milling train along with the juice screen was modelled. The MILEX model was validated with factory data and the variation in the mill performance parameters was observed and studied. Some case studies were undertaken to study the effect of fibre in juice streams, juice in cush return and imbibition% fibre on extraction performance of the milling process. It was concluded from the study that the empirical relations developed for the mill performance parameters in the MILSIM model were not applicable to the new model. New empirical relations have to be developed before the model is applied with confidence. Secondly, a soluble and insoluble solids model was developed using modelling theory and experimental data to track the flow of sucrose (pol), reducing sugars (glucose and fructose), soluble ash, true fibre and mud solids entering the milling train through the cane supply and their distribution in juice and bagasse streams.. The soluble impurities and mud solids in cane affect the performance of the milling train and further processing of juice and bagasse. New mill performance parameters were developed in the model to track the flow of cane components. The developed model is the first of its kind and provides some additional insight regarding the flow of soluble and insoluble cane components and the factors affecting their distribution in juice and bagasse. The model proved to be a good extension to the MILEX model to study the overall performance of the milling train. Thirdly, the developed models were incorporated in a proprietary software package "SysCAD’ for advanced operational efficiency and for availability in the ‘whole of factory’ model. The MILEX model was developed in SysCAD software to represent a single milling unit. Eventually the entire milling train and the juice screen were developed in SysCAD using series of different controllers and features of the software. The models developed in SysCAD can be run from macro enabled excel file and reports can be generated in excel sheets. The flexibility of the software, ease of use and other advantages are described broadly in the relevant chapter. The MILEX model is developed in static mode and dynamic mode. The application of the dynamic mode of the model is still under progress.

Dunfield, Peter F. "Effects of a sugar-factory byproduct compost on root growth and mycorrhizal infection of sugarcane in Barbados." Thesis, McGill University, 1991. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=60017.

Full text
Abstract:
A compost consisting 95% of the sugar mill byproducts: bagasse, filter press mud, and fly ash, applied at 5 t ha$ sp{-1}$, increased vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal infection of sugarcane roots in one of three experimental fields in Barbados. In a plant cane field, compost stimulated formation of intracellular hyphal coils and arbuscules, but not vesicles or hyphae. Infection was greater in roots 35 cm and 65 cm than 5 cm distant from the plant stem, and compost effects were not significant at 5 cm. Two other sources of phosphorus, filter press mud and triple superphosphate, did not affect and suppressed mycorrhizal infection, respectively. Two ratoon crops showed no residual effect of compost on mycorrhizal infection. Compost also stimulated tillering, phosphorus content, and perhaps yield of cane, but did not differentially effect high versus low tillering or sloped versus flat areas. Root length, weight, and specific root length were unaffected by compost addition, but root branching was decreased.

Este trabalho analisa, sob o ponto de vista termodinâmico, termoeconômico e econômico a integração da gaseificação da biomassa em uma usina sucroalcooleira. Considera-se a gaseificação da palha e da vinhaça, com a queima do bagaço na caldeira para gerar o vapor necessário para a usina. São considerados cinco casos de estudo. Inicialmente é feita uma análise da planta atual de vapor de uma usina do oeste paulista que utiliza equipamentos modernos e eficientes, incluindo uma caldeira que produz vapor a altos níveis de pressão e temperatura, o qual é utilizado para geração de eletricidade em uma turbina de extração-condensação de múltiplos estágios e em outra turbina de contrapressão. Além disso, todos os acionamentos das moendas são eletrificados. Na sequência são definidos casos de estudo que combinam a gaseificação da vinhaça e da palha da cana com a planta atual de vapor da usina. Por fim, é definida uma planta de uma usina nova com o dobro da moagem considerada inicialmente, incluindo uma caldeira que gera vapor a altos níveis de pressão e temperatura, e uma turbina de extração-condensação de múltiplos estágios, integrando a gaseificação da palha e da vinhaça. Os resultados mostram que as plantas com gaseificação promovem um aumento substancial na geração de eletricidade da usina e na eficiência da planta. Entretanto, sob o ponto de vista termoeconômico e econômico, as plantas que integram a gaseificação apresentam maior custo de geração da eletricidade e maior tempo de retorno do investimento
In this work, the integration of biomass gasification in a sugarcane plant is analyzed from the thermodynamic, thermoeconomic and economic point of view. The gasification of straw and stillage by-products is taken into account, alongside the burning of bagasse in the boilers to generate steam for the plant. Five case studies are considered. At first, an analysis is carried out of the current steam plant from a sugarcane factory in the western region of Sao Paulo State that deploys modern and efficient equipment, including a boiler that produces steam at high pressure and temperature, which is used to generate electricity in a multistage condensation-extraction steam turbine and in a backpressure turbine. All drives of the mills are electrified. Following that, some more case studies are specified, combining the gasification of stillage and straw with the current steam plant of the sugarcane factory. Finally, a new plant is proposed, with twice the milling currently obtained, including a boiler that generates steam at higher pressure and temperature, and a multistage condensation- extraction turbine, integrating the gasification of straw and stillage. The results show that plants with gasification promote a substantial increase in electricity generation and in the efficiency of the plant. However, from the thermoeconomic and economic point of view, the plants that considers gasification presents a higher cost of the electricity and a longer payback

Abstract:
À la fin des années 90, deux équipes indépendantes ont montré l’expansion accélérée de notre Univers, à partir des mesures de distances de supernovas de type Ia (SNIa). Depuis, une des priorités de la cosmologie moderne est de caractériser ce phénomène et d’en comprendre ses fondements. L’amélioration des mesures de distance réalisées à partir des SNIa est une technique majeure permettant de mieux caractériser l’accélération et donc de déterminer la nature physique de ce phénomène. Ce document développe un nouveau modèle de distribution spectrale en énergie de SNIa nommé le Supernova Useful Generator And Reconstructor (SUGAR) permettant d’améliorer les mesures des distances. Ce modèle est construit à partir des propriétés spectrales des SNIa et des données spectrophotométriques de la collaboration The Nearby Supernova Factory. L’avancée principale, proposée dans SUGAR, réside dans l’ajout de deux paramètres supplémentaires pour caractériser la variabilité des SNIa. Le premier dépend des propriétés des vitesses des éjectas des SNIa, le deuxième dépend de leurs raies du calcium. L’ajout de ces paramètres, ainsi que la grande qualité des données de la collaboration the Nearby Supernova Factory font de SUGAR le meilleur modèle qui existe pour décrire la distribution spectrale en énergie des SNIa et améliore les mesures des distances de l’ordre de 15% par rapport à la méthode usuelle. Les performances de ce modèle en font un excellent candidat pour préparer les expériences futures comme LSST ou WFIRST. Par ailleurs, ce document présente une analyse sur l’effet de l’appartenance d’une SNIa à un amas de galaxies sur sa mesure de distance. Les galaxies d’un amas possèdent une vitesse propre largement supérieure à la valeur supposée lors de la mesure des distances avec les SNIa. Ceci a pour conséquence d’introduire une source d’erreur systématique sur la mesure de distance. Le fait de ne pas prendre en compte cet effet peut dégrader la mesure de distance de l’ordre de 2,5% pour les SNIa appartenant à un amas. Cette analyse à été réalisée en utilisant les données de la collaboration the Nearby Supernova Factory et des catalogues public d’amas de galaxies
At the end of the 90s, two independent teams showed, based on distance measurements of type Ia supernovæ (SNIa), that expansion of our Universe is accelerating. Since then, one of the priorities of modern cosmology is to characterize this phenomenon and to understand its nature. The improvement of distance measurements of SNIa is one technique to improve the constraints on acceleration and to determine the physical nature of it. This document develops a new SNIa spectral energy distribution model, called the Supernova Useful Generator and Reconstructor (SUGAR), which improves distance measurement. This model is constructed from SNIa spectral properties and spectrophotometric data from The Nearby Supernova Factory collaboration. The main advancement proposed in SUGAR is the addition of two additional parameters to characterize the SNIa variability. The first depends on the properties of SNIa ejecta velocity, the second depends on their calcium lines. The addition of these parameters as well as the high quality of the data of The Nearby Supernova Factory collaboration make SUGAR the best model available to describe the spectral energy distribution of SNIa and improves distances measurements of the order of 15 % relative to the usual method. The performance of this model makes it an excellent candidate for preparing future experiments like LSST or WFIRST. In addition, this document presents an analysis of the effect of SNIa belonging to a galaxy cluster on its distance measurement. Galaxies of a cluster have a peculiar velocity much higher than the assumed value when measuring distances with SNIa. This has the effect of introducing a systematic error into the distance measurement. Failure to take into account this effect may degrade the distance measurement by 2.5% for SNIa belonging to a cluster. This analysis was carried out using data from the collaboration of the Nearby Supernova Factory and public catalogs of galaxy cluster

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This report presents the application of the six sigma quality concept in solving a true business problem. Six sigma is a quality improvement and business strategy/tool developed by Motorola in the mid 1980s. It aims at delivering products and services that approach levels of near perfection. To achieve this objective a six sigma process must not produce more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities, meaning the process should be at least 99.9997% perfect [Berdebes, 2003]. Motorola's success with six sigma popularised the concept and it has now been adopted by many of the world's top compames e.g. General Electric, Allied Signal-Honeywell, etc. All the six sigma companies report big financial returns as a result of increased quality levels due to the reduction in the number of defects. 'General Electric reports annual benefits of over $2.5 billion across the organisation from six sigma' [Huag, 2003]. The six sigma concept follows a five step problem-solving methodology known as DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control) to improve existing processes. Each of these steps makes use of a range of tools, which include quality, statistical, engineering, and business tools. This report first gives a theoretical presentation on quality and six sigma, attempting to answer the question 'What is six sigma'. A step-by-step guide on how to go through the DMAIC problem solving cycle is also presented. The six sigma concept was demonstrated by application to the colour removal process of a continuous processing plant manufacturing refined sugar. Colour removal is a very important process in sugar refining since the purpose of a refinery is to remove colour and other impurities from the raw sugar crystals. The colour removal process consists of three unit operations; liming, carbonation and sulphitation. Liming involves the addition of lime (calcium hydroxide) required for the formation of a calcium precipitate in the next unit operations. Carbonation is carried out in two stages; primary and secondary carbonation. Both stages involve the formation of a calcium carbonate precipitate, which traps colour bodies and other impurities. Sulphitation occurs in a single step and involve the formation of a calcium sulphite precipitate which also traps impurities. The pH and colour are the main variables that are being monitored throughout the colour removal process. Colour removal process Raw sugar Melting Carbonation Crystalli ~ Liming ~ c::J Secondary f+ Sulphitation .. Sugar sation Figure 1: Colour removal process The pH control of the two colour removal unit operations; carbonation and sulphitation, is very poor and as a result the colour removal achieved is below expectation. This compromises the final refined sugar quality since colour not removed in the colour removal processes ends up in the sugar. The first carbonation stage (primary) fails to lower the pH to the required specification and the second carbonation stage (secondary) is highly erratic, the pH fluctuating between too high and too low. The sulphitation process adds more sulphur dioxide than required and hence the pH is lowered below the lower specification limit. The six sigma DMAIC cycle was implemented in order to solve the problem of poor pH control. The Define phase defined the project and identified the process to be improved. The Measure phase measured the current performance of the process by collecting past laboratory data with the corresponding field instruments data. The data was used to draw frequency distribution plots that displayed the actual variation of the process relative to the natural variation of the process (specification width) and to calculate process capability indices. The Analyse phase analysed the data so as to determine the key sources of variation. The Improve phase used the findings of the analyse phase to propose solutions to improve the colour removal processes. The Control phase proposed a control plan so as to monitor and sustain the improvement gained. The key findings of the study are presented below: • Failure of the first carbonation stage to lower the pH to the required level is due to insufficient carbon dioxide gas supply. • The second carbonation reaction occurs very fast hence poor control will result in high variability. • The amount of colour removed is dependent on the input raw melt colour. • The histograms of the colour removal unit operations are off-centered and display a process variation greater than the specification width and hence a large proportion of the data falls outside the specification limits. • The % CaO and CO2 gas addition were found to be the key variables that control the processes centering on target. The % CaO having a stronger effect in the liming process and CO2 gas addition on the carbonation process. • The variation between the field instrument's pH and laboratory pH is the key variable that control the processes spread (standard deviation of the processes). • The processes Cpk values are less than C, (CpkAFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis kyk na die toepassing van die ses sigma kwaliteitskonsep om 'n praktiese probleem op te los. Ses sigma soos dit algemeen bekend staan is nie slegs 'n kwaliteitverbeteringstegniek nie maar ook 'n strategiese besigheidsbenadering wat in die middel 1980s deur Motorolla ontwikkel en bekend gestel is. Die doelstellings is om produkte en dienste perfek af te lewer. Om die doelwit te kan bereik poog die tegniek om die proses so te ontwerp dat daar nie meer as 3.4 defekte per miljoen mag wees nie - dit wil se die proses is 99,9997% perfek [Berdebes, 2003]. As gevolg van die sukses wat Motorolla met die konsep behaal het, het dit algemene bekendheid verwerf, en word dit intussen deur baie van die wereld se voorste maatskappy gebruik, o.a. General Electric, Allied Signal-Honeywell, ens. Al die maatskappye toon groot finansele voordele as gevolg van die vermindering in defekte wat teweeg gebring is. So by. beloop die jaarlikse voordele vir General Electric meer as $2.5 biljoen [Huag, 2003]. Die ses sigma konsep volg 'n vyf-stap probleem oplossings proses (in Engels bekend as DMAIC: Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control), naamlik definieer, meet, analiseer, verbeter, en beheer om bestaande prosesse te verbeter. In elkeen van die stappe is daar spesifieke gereedskap oftegnieke wat aangewend kan word, soos by. kwaliteits-, statistiese--, ingenicurs-cn besigheids tegnieke. Die verslag begin met 'n teoretiese oorsig oor kwaliteit en die ses sigma proses, waardeur die vraag "wat is ses sigma" beantwoord word. Daama volg 'n gedetailleerde stap-virstap beskrywing van die DMAIC probleem oplossingsiklus. Die toepassing van die ses sigma konsep word dan gedoen aan die hand van 'n spesifieke proses in die kontinue suiker prosesserings aanleg, naamlik die kleurverwyderingsproses. Hierdie proses is baie belangrik omdat die doelstellings daarvan juis draai rondom die verwydering van nie net kleur nie maar ook alle ander vreemde bestanddele van die rou suiker kristalle. Die proses bestaan uit drie onafhanklike maar sekwensiele aktiwiteite waardeur verseker word dat die regte gehalte suiker uiteindelik verkry word. Tydens die eerste twee stappe is veral die pH-beheer onder verdenking, sodat die kleur verwydering nie die gewenste kwaliteit lewer nie. Dit bemvloed op sy beurt die gehalte van die finale produk, omdat die ongewenste kleur uiteindelik deel is van die suiker. Die pH inhoud is nie net nie laag genoeg nie, maar ook hoogs veranderlik - in beginsel dus buite beheer. Die DMAIC siklus is toegepas ten einde die pH beter te kan beheer. Tydens die definisiefase is die projek beskryf en die proses wat verbeter moet word identifiseer. In die meetfase IS die nodige data versamel om sodoende die inherente prosesveranderlikheid te bepaal. Die belangrikste bronne of veranderlikes wat bydra tot die prosesveranderlikheid is in die derde-- of analisefase bepaal. Hierdie bevindings is gebruik tydens die verbeteringsfase om voorstelle ter verbetering van die proses te maak. Die voorstelle is implementeer en in die laaste fase, naamlik die beheerfase, is 'n plan opgestel ten einde te verseker dat die proses deurentyd gemonitor word sodat die verbeterings volhoubaar bly. 'n Hele aantal veranderlikes wat elk bygedra het tot die prosesvariasie is identifiseer, en word in detail in die verslag beskryf. Gebaseer op die analise en bevindings van die ondersoek kon logiese aanbevelings gemaak word sodat die proses 'n groot verbetering in kleurverwydering getoon het. Die belangrikste bevinding was dat die huidige proses nie die vermoee het om 100% te voldoen aan die spesifikasies of vereistes nie. Die hoofdoel van die voorstelle is dus om te begin om die prosesveranderlikheid te minimeer of ten minste te stabiliseer - eers nadat die doel bereik is kan daar voortgegaan word om verbeteringe te implementeer wat die prosesvermoee aanspreek. Ten einde hierdie beheer te kan uitoefen en vanasie te verminder IS die volgende voorstelle gemaak: Statistiese beheer kaarte Die kleurverwyderingsproses is hoogs onstabiel. Met behulp van statistiese beheer kaarte is daar 'n vroegtydige waarskuwing van moontlike buite beheer situasies. Die proses kan dus ondersoek en aangepas word voordat die finale produkkwaliteit te swak word. • Evaluering van proses vermoee - ISO 9000 interne oudit Die assesering van die prosesvermoee behoort deel te word van die interne ISO oudit proses, om sodoende prosesverbeteringe gereeld en amptelik te meet. Die standaard gestel vir C, behoort gedurig aandag te kry - dit is nie goeie praktyk om bv. slegs 'n doelwit van C, = 2 soos voorgestel in ses sigma te gebruik nie, maar om dit aan te pas na gelang van die robuustheid van die proses wat bereik is. Daar is beduidende voordele bereik deur die toepassing van die DMAIC siklus. So het byvoorbeeld die persentasie datapunte buite spesifikasie verminder van 84% tot 33%, bloot deur te kyk na die effek wat die toevoeging van C02 gas tydens die proses het. Dit toon dus duidelik dat, alhoewel die proses huidiglik nie die vermoee het om te voldoen aan die vereistes van ses sigma nie, dit wel die moeite werd is om die beginsels en tegnieke toe te pas.

Neste trabalho são realizados estudos termodinâmicos e termoeconômicos visando o aproveitamento do gás natural como combustível em usinas de açúcar e álcool. Para tanto são considerados quatro casos, sendo o primeiro uma planta de uma usina sucroalcooleira real que utiliza equipamentos modernos e eficientes, e que comercializa o excedente de eletricidade na safra. O segundo é um caso hipotético no qual é incorporada à planta real da usina uma turbina a gás e uma caldeira de recuperação, passando a planta a operar em ciclo combinado na entressafra utilizando como combustível o gás natural, com o intuito de possibilitar a comercialização de eletricidade ao longo de todo o ano. O terceiro caso considera a proposta de uma planta com grande capacidade de moagem (duas vezes mais do que a da usina real considerada no primeiro caso), que opere de forma convencional com geração de excedente de eletricidade para comercialização apenas na safra, com o diferencial de ser constituída por duas linhas independentes de produção, consumo de vapor e geração de eletricidade, flexibilizando a produção e manutenção. Finalmente, o quarto caso considera o aproveitamento do gás natural como combustível associado ao bagaço da cana, através da incorporação de uma turbina a gás e uma caldeira de recuperação na planta do terceiro caso, permitindo também a comercialização de eletricidade na entressafra. Diante dos resultados obtidos, foi constatado que só existe a viabilidade para o uso do gás natural no quarto caso, e mesmo assim em condições especiais nas quais se considera custos do bagaço e do gás natural abaixo dos praticados no mercado, bem como uma remuneração para a venda de eletricidade excedente acima do preço atual de mercado
In this work thermodynamic and thermoeconomic analyses for the use of natural gas as fuel in sugar-alcohol factories will be accomplished. In order to make these analyses, four cases are considered, being the first case constituted by a real sugar-alcohol factory that uses modern and efficient equipments, and sells surplus of electricity during the harvest. The second case is a hypothetical case that incorporates to the real plant of the previous case a gas turbine and a heat recovery steam generator, making possible the operation with natural gas in combined cycle at the time between harvests, with the intention of making possible the commercialization of electricity along the entire year. The third case considers the proposal of a plant with great milling capacity (twice more than of the real plant considered previously), operating in a conventional way with generation of electricity surplus for commercialization in the harvest, with the differential of being constituted by two independent lines of production and steam consumption and generation of electricity, becoming more flexible the production and maintenance. Finally, the fourth case considers the use of the natural gas as fuel associated to the sugar cane bagasse, through the incorporation of a gas turbine and a heat recovery steam generator in the plant of the previous case, also allowing the electricity commercialization at the time between harvests. In agreement with the obtained results, it was verified that there is viability for the natural gas use only in the fourth case, even though in special conditions in which the costs of the sugar cane bagasse and natural gas are considered below of the current price of the market, as well as the remuneration for the sale of electricity surplus is considered above of the current price of market

Full text
Abstract:
Intégrée dans une unité de production de sucre et d'éthanol, la digestion anaérobie peut fournir une solution écologique pour traiter la matière organique tout en fournissant l'énergie qui peut, en partie, couvrir les besoins énergétiques de l'usine. L’objet de cette thèse de doctorat est la compréhension et l’optimisation de la méthanisation des coproduits de sucrerie et de distillerie de betterave dans l’optique d’une intégration industrielle du procédé. D’une part, la faisabilité de la digestion des pulpes en mono-substrat et sans dilution en réacteur parfaitement agité a été démontrée. La digestion thermophile s’est révélée efficace et stable jusqu’à une charge organique comprise entre 5 et 5,9 kg MO/m3.j. La biodégradabilité des pulpes est élevée, le taux d’abattement de matière organique de 88,1% et la production spécifique de méthane de 0,353 Nm3 CH4/kg MO. Des contraintes technologiques spécifiques aux pulpes, comme par exemple les phénomènes de moussage ou d’abrasion des pompes, ont été mises en évidence.D’autre part, la méthanisation des vinasses en conditions mésophiles a révélé les limites du procédé parfaitement agité. La charge maximale, autour de 3 kg DCO/m3.j, a permis d’obtenir une production spécifique de méthane de 0,353 Nm3 CH4/kg MO mais l’accumulation de sels d’acides gras volatils, y compris à faible charge organique, indique un déséquilibre entre les flores acidogène et méthanogène. D’un point de vue biologique, il semble que c’est la concentration élevée en sels des vinasses (C=31,7 mS/cm et [K]=14 g/L), qui représenterait le frein principal au développement et à l’activité des microorganismes. L’utilisation du modèle AM2, qui distingue deux phases, acidogénèse et méthanogénèse, a mis en évidence un faible taux de croissance spécifique des archées méthanogènes. L’extraction partielle des sels par électrodialyse a permis de lever une partie de cette inhibition, tandis que leur dilution a permis, à charge organique équivalente, de diminuer le temps de séjour d’un facteur 4 sans altérer les performances de la méthanisation, ceci en diminuant les concentrations en acétate et propionate dans le digesteur. Pour permettre l’intensification du procédé, le recyclage des microorganismes dans le digesteur a été étudié et a permis d’atteindre une charge organique de 6 à 7 kg DCO/m3.j. Enfin, la caractérisation des digestats de méthanisation a permis d’envisager leurs différentes voies de traitement (évapoconcentration, séparation solide/liquide,…) et de vérifier leurs caractéristiques agronomiques.En perspective, Cristal Union envisage la construction d’un démonstrateur permettant de tester différentes configurations à l’échelle industrielle. Le traitement successif des coproduits selon leur disponibilité, les pulpes en campagne sucrière, puis les vinasses en intercampagne, est envisagé. Les phases de transition entre ces deux périodes ont été étudiées et la faisabilité d’une alimentation mixte, sans réduction de la charge, démontrée. Dans cette optique, notre choix se porterait sur des conditions de température mésophiles, plus favorables au traitement d’un produit tel que les vinasses. Un système de recyclage de la biomasse est alors indispensable
The growing international demand for energy and water constitutes a significant challenge for modern industry. Integrated in a sugar and ethanol factory, anaerobic digestion can provide an environmentally friendly solution by using organic matter co-products to provide energy that can partially cover the factory’s needs. The purpose of this doctoral thesis is the study of the anaerobic digestion of sugar beet pulps and distillery vinasses. We used a multiscale approach to achieve the two main objectives: understanding the biological phenomena involved and analyzing the technological problems that can occur in the digesters. We first demonstrated the feasibility of the anaerobic digestion of beet pulps in a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) without water addition. Thermophilic digestion was effective and we achieved a high degradation of pulps with satisfactory biogas yields. The thermophilic process could operate stably up to an organic loading rate of 5 to 5,9 kg VS.m-3.d-1. The biodegradability of pulps was very high and allowed to obtain a VS destruction of 88,1% with a specific methane production of 0,353 Nm3 CH4.kg-1 VS. Next, the mesophilic anaerobic digestion of vinasses revealed the limits of the CSTR process for the treatment of this high strength distillery wastewater. The maximum loading rate reached was between 2 and 3 kg COD.m-3.d-1, with a specific methane production of 0,344 Nm3 CH4.kg-1 VS. However, the accumulation of volatile fatty acid salts, even at low organic loading rates, indicated an imbalance between acidogenic and methanogenic microflora. From a biological perspective, we assumed that the high salt concentration of vinasses (up to 41,3 mS/cm) is the main obstacle to the development and activity of microorganisms, as a two-reaction model (AM2) showed low specific growth rate of methanogens. The partial extraction of salts by electrodialysis allowed to remove a part of this inhibition, while their dilution led, at equivalent organic loading rate, to the reduction of the residence time by a factor 4. This was achieved without decreasing methane yield, while also reducing concentrations of acetate and propionate in the digester. To enable process intensification, biomass recycling in the digester, after the centrifugation, was tested to compensate for their low specific growth rates; loading rates reached 7 kg COD.m-3.d-1. We subsequently put in place a strategy for digesters control, to ensure effective monitoring. Finally, we had to characterize the digestates and to consider their different treatment paths. (evapoconcentration, solid / liquid separation, ...) before final valorization. For the industrial scale up, we envisage the successive treatment of the coproducts according to their availability: pulps during the sugar campaign and then vinasses in the intercampaign. As such, we also studied the transition periods and demonstrated the feasibility of a mixed feed, without reducing the loading rate. For such a project, we would choose mesophilic temperature conditions, more favorable for the treatment of a product like vinasses. A system for biomass recycling, whose efficiency was demonstrated, must be installed when the vinasses are treated. The system needs to be compatible with the treatment of the two substrates proposed, for example centrifugation or filtration

Full text
Abstract:
Ce n'est pas la première fois qu'on aborde la question de l'immigration indienne « réunionnaise » ou l'engagisme. Au niveau de la thèse, précisément en histoire contemporaine, il s'agit du premier exercice à La Réunion. Nous savons beaucoup de choses sur l'engagisme, ses modes de fonctionnement, ses règles, les décrets. Pourtant il reste des zones d'ombre. Pourquoi les engagés indiens dans leur grande majorité, ont-ils souhaité rester dans la colonie à l'issue de leurs contrats ? La réponse est évidente : puisqu'ils avaient des conditions ici plus que raisonnables comparées à celles qu'on leur proposait en Inde. Mais à quelles conditions ? Il est de bon ton d'affirmer que l'engagisme n'était qu'une forme déguisée de l'esclavage. Sur le plan juridique nous sommes en présence de deux systèmes différents. L'un s'appuyait sur le concept de « bien meuble », développé très tôt chez Aristote (la domination totale) et les conséquences qui en découlaient. Dans l'autre configuration, celle de l'engagisme, un contrat de travail était élaboré entre les deux parties. Par le décret de 1889, les fils d'engagés, « anglais » deviendront français. Avant la Première Guerre mondiale, une polémique fut soulevée sur le point de savoir s'il fallait envoyer les fils d'Indiens sur le front. En réalité très peu d'entre eux ont participé à la Grande guerre. Etait-ce une illustration symbolique de la question de l'intégration ?
It is not the first time that the issue of Indian immigration to Reunion or “hiring” -that is to say “engagisme” in French - is dealt with. But it is the first time that a thesis in contemporary history is written about that topic. Many things are known about hiring: how it worked, its rules, its decrees. But other things are still ignored. Why did most Indian indentured laborers decide to stay in the colony at the end of their contracts? The answer is obvious since they had better working conditions on Reunion than in India. But what were these conditions like? It is often asserted that hiring was disguised slavery. From a juridical point of view they are two different systems. Slavery relied on the concept of « personal property », elaborated at an early stage by Aristotle (total domination) and the consequences that followed. Literally, the two systems cannot be compared, thanks to the 1889 decree the sons of “English” indentured laborers became French. Before WW1 a controversy flared up about whether or not Indians' sons should be sent to the front. In fact very few of them went to the war. Is that example symbolic of the issue of integration?

Azhar, Mat Easa. "Factors affecting Maillard induced gelation of protein-sugar systems." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 1996. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/11601/.

Full text
Abstract:
Gelation due to the Maillard reaction took place when solutions containing a low level of bovine serum albumin were heated in the presence of carbonyl compounds. The Maillard reaction caused a change in colour, a decrease in the pH and induced gelation. These changes were dependent on the type and concentration of sugars or protein and on the heating conditions used. Reducing sugar and Maillard reaction products (e.g. glyoxal) affected these changes, yet their order of reactivity for browning and gelation were not necessarily the same. Loss of available lysine and arginine plus changes in the thio amino acids showed that these were implicated in the reaction. The gelation kinetics (gelation time and development of storage modulus) were followed in real time using a Bohlin CS Rheometer at a temperature of 90 °C. These studies showed that the gels did not form at a specific pH, the pH being lower for samples where the more reactive carbonyl compounds were used. Measurement of the charge on the protein after the Maillard reaction showed an increased negative charge, hence causing a lowering in the protein's isoelectric point. This had the effect of changing the critical protein concentration necessary for gelation at any pH above the isoelectric point. This reasoning would also explain the low syneresis seen in the Maillard gels. Hydrodynamic studies on dilute solution showed that the protein molecules heated in the presence of xylose associated in an orderly manner despite having a low pH. The aggregates could be described as "stiff and rod like". The linkages holding *the aggregates together were mostly attributed to additional non-disulfide linkages resulting from the Maillard reaction. Similar types of crosslinks were formed in the Maillard gels heated at 90°C and were thought to have enhanced the gel strength. Extrusion of soya grits with reducing sugars did not form a retort-stable product. However, microwave heating of the extruded product was successful in producing a product that survived a typical canning process. This suggests that formation of crosslinks may be controlled to produce novel food products.

The objectives were to induce and study the effects of adverse climatic conditions on sugar maple. Two different snow removal treatments were applied over the winter period of 1990-91 and a tarpaulin treatment was applied over the summer period of 1991 to a sugar maple stand in the Morgan Arboretum. The complete snow removal and tarpaulin treated trees showed decreased leaf water potential and increased peroxidase activity over the growing season. Foliar Ca was reduced in the two different snow removal treatments early in the growing season while foliar N was reduced in the complete snow removal trees late in the growing season. Soil NO$ sb3 sp-,$ K$ sp+$ and Mn$ sp{2+}$ was elevated in the complete and partial snow removal, and tarpaulin treatments at various times throughout the growing season. The snow removal treatments affected both water and nutrient status as well as tree health.

Abstract:
Background: Sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) comprise the largest source of added sugars in US adolescents’ diets. SSB consumption is pervasive in US culture and is a critical risk factor for weight gain and obesity in adolescents. This thesis evaluates multi-level factors that influence adolescent SSB consumption. Methods: The first two aims of this thesis utilized data from the cross sectional, internet based Family Life, Activity, Sun, Health and Eating (FLASHE) study to: 1) examine availability of SSBs in multiple settings (home, school, neighborhood) and adolescent SSB consumption, 2) examine the associations between perceptions of parenting practices and adolescent SSB consumption. The third aim used focus group discussions to understand adolescents’ perceptions about SSBs. Results: We found that SSB availability in the home was an important predictor of adolescent SSB consumption, regardless of SSB availability in other settings. Also, parenting practices that facilitate adolescent SSB consumption are associated with higher adolescent SSB consumption, but discussing/negotiating SSB behaviors is not associated with adolescent SSB consumption. Adolescents’ described their attitudes, reinforcements, knowledge, and sources of influence around SSBs which are multifactorial and complex. Conclusions: This thesis identified potential targets for addressing adolescent SSB consumption through availability of SSBs at home, parenting practices, and adolescent perceptions around SSBs. These are important modifiable factors in the adolescents’ sociocultural environment that should be targeted in future dietary interventions to influence adolescent SBB consumption.

Abstract:
The antisense principle bases its premise in the exquisite complementarity of a synthetic, chemically-modified oligonucleotide to tightly bind with a unique target RNA sequence. Rapid and selective genetic discrimination, as driven by the formation of multiple points of target contact, constitutes a central goal of oligonucleotide therapies. Most synthetic designs have, however, provided little structural insight on the role of the antisense oligonucleotide (AON) in triggering RNA cleavage of preformed hybrids, as catalyzed by a ubiquitous, intracellular enzyme known as ribonuclease H. The use of RNase H to assist AON inhibition of gene expression is crucial to mainstream antisense technologies, yet the precise mode by which this enzyme acts on AON/RNA duplexes remains unclear.
To address the role of substrate structure on enzyme activation, a dominant theme of this thesis highlights the design, synthesis and structural studies of novel AONs comprised of rigid 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoroarabino (2'F-ANA) or native (DNA) nucleotides, containing interspersed flexible (e.g. "2',3'-seconucleotides") or anucleosidic (e.g. butyl) residues. This unique AON class combines both pre-organization & flexibility within the hosting heteroduplex, which on their own usually prove detrimental towards enzyme trigger. Their combination, however, synergistically activates both E. coli and human RNases H, leading to potent destruction of duplexed RNA. These compounds thus represent the first examples of modified AONs lacking deoxyribose sugars that elicit RNase H activity comparably to the native (DNA) systems. DNA-derived AONs with acyclic residues also amplify enzyme-catalyzed target degradation, suggesting the added flexibility imparted to the substrate structure to be vital for ameliorating the protein/nucleic acid interaction. Melting and circular dichroic experiments have revealed that the enhanced dynamics associated with a particular acyclic modification remain globally undetectable, indicating the acyclic residues induce only local structural deformations to the helix architecture.
Intricate comparisons of the structural and biological properties of various acyclic residues (e.g. butyl, propyl and ethyl interresidue spacers) designed to locally compress or expand the AON helix backbone at a defined axial site has enabled a deeper understanding of the conformational factors that underlie the observed enhancements.

Abstract:
Ce travail de recherche a pour objectif la réalisation d'outils d'analyse de bilans énergétiques de procédés de fabrication en sucrerie de cannes. Il devait également établir la base d'un outil de diagnostic sur le fonctionnement de la sucrerie. Cette recherche s'appuie sur différentes disciplines: la physique énergétique, la thermochimie, la métrologie, l'analyse numérique, l'informatique. Après avoir présenté le procédé industriel de fabrication du sucre de cannes, nous avons mené une étude bibliographique sur les outils de base de l'analyse énergétique d'un procédé de fabrication (théorie des nouveaux bilans énergétiques, thermophysique des constituants). Une pré-analyse énergétique nous a permis de préciser le rôle essentiel de la station d'évaporation dans la distribution de l'énergie-vapeur au sein de l'usine. Nous avons construit un modèle physique et mathématique de ce procédé reposant sur les équations de bilans énergétiques de systèmes thermodynamiques ouverts. Parallèlement, un dispositif portable a été élaboré afin d'effectuer les mesures de grandeurs thermophysiques accessibles expérimentalement. Différents outils ont pu être mis en œuvre à partir des analyses que nous avons conduites et des mesures que nous avons effectuées dans la sucrerie de Beaufonds. Un programme informatique basé sur le modèle physique que nous avons élaboré a été exploité dans le cadre de trois types de calculs énergétiques : un traitement de données, un modèle global et un modèle mixte. Une validation de notre étude est obtenue par une analyse comparative des différents résultats. (Doc thèses)
The purpose of this thesis is the creation of tools in order to analyse energy balances in manufacturing within a sugar mill. This work should also implement the basis of another tool enabling us to produce a diagnosis on the working of sugar mill. This research relies on diverse subjects such as energetics, thermochemistry, metrology, numerical analysis and data-processing. Following our introduction to the industrial process of milling sugar, we have then realized bibliographical studies about basic tools of energetic analysis of sugar manufacturing: energetic balances theory, the thermophysic of the constituants and the review of thermical balances in a sugar mill. An energetic analysis enabled us to reveal the essential action of the evaporation unit in the distribution of steam energy in the core of the sugar mill. We have built up both a physical and mathematical model of this process based on energetic balances equations of open thermodynamics systems. At the same rime, a portable device has been elaborated in order to realize measurements of thermodynamic quantities experimentally accessible. Thanks to the analyses led as well as the measurements gathered at the sugar mill of Beaufonds, several tools have been created. A computer programm relying on the physical model elaborated by ourselves has been run in three energetic models of calculation i. E. : data processing, global model and combined model. We validate our study by analysing comparatively and accurately the different results

Abstract:
Sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) has experienced diebacks in many parts of its range; these declines have caused researchers to consider the many connected factors governing tree health. Altered availability of base cations due to acidic deposition and climatic extremes (drought, late winter freeze-thaw cycles) have been identified as two main causal stressors. To predict the role of climate on Ca nutrition, I investigated the relationship between the climatic factors of temperature, precipitation, water availability and windstorm on temporal changes to depth of Ca source of sugar maple. I hypothesized that the Ca uptake depth would be deeper after windstorms, or under dry or cold conditions, and shallower under warm or wet conditions. The ratio of Ca/Sr can be used to track the source of Ca. Calibration of the relationship between soil and plant Ca/Sr was done by analyzing Ca/Sr ratios in soil extracts of various strengths (H2O, NH4Cl, and ammonium EDTA) and in seedlings of sugar maple grown from natural regeneration on 37 differing sites. The relationships between soil extract Ca/Sr ratios and leaf and stem Ca/Sr ratios were linear, and the slopes of these relationships were different. These findings support the use of Ca/Sr as a tracer to Ca and they highlight the need to calibrate the technique for the plant tissue and the soil extractant used. This technique was then applied to study Ca uptake depth and its relationship with climate in the Hermine watershed, a sugar maple dominated forest in southern Quebec. The Ca/Sr was measured in soil, incremental cores of wood, and leaves. The ratio of Ca/Sr from nine soil profiles decreased with soil depth (r2 = 0.320, p<0.05), providing a signature for depth. Wood cores from ten trees were analysed in five or ten year increments from 1940 to 1999 to provide a long-term trend of Ca nutrition. Sugar maple leaves from 1995-2005 from the same 25 trees were analyzed to determine the annual dynamics of Ca uptake depth and its relationship with climate. Results suggest that the majority of tree Ca is taken from the lowest part of the rooting zone, regardless of the climatic conditions that occurred during this study, although the minor variations were related to the April temperature (r2 = 0.208, p = 0.023) and the June, July and August combined total precipitation (r2 = 0.581, p = 0.006). The effect of the windstorm on Ca uptake depth was only apparent in the area of the forest most visibly affected; Ca uptake was deeper.

Abstract:
Glycoengineering is a technology that could improve protein therapeutics. While protein glycosylation in general enhances solubility and stability, and reduces aggregation, immunogenicity and proteolysis, specific kinds of glycosylation may also be critical. For example, capping of glycans with N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) maximises circulatory half-life in humans. Moreover, some glycans directly participate in molecular recognition and other aspects of glycoprotein function. Glycoproteins produced by non-human mammalian cells carry glycans capped by N-glycolyl-neuraminic acid rather than Neu5Ac. Yet production in human cell lines is costly and slow, requires specialist facilities, produces low yields and is subject to additional regulations. Hence there is a case for glycoengineering alternative expression systems capable of rapid, low-cost, high-yield glycoprotein production. This report focuses on the glycoengineering of Pichia pastoris, a yeast, to produce recombinant human glycoprotein factor H (FH) bearing human-like glycans. FH is a potent down-regulator of the complement system. Mutations and SNPs in FH result in autoimmune diseases such as atypical haemolytic ureamic syndrome and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Recombinant FH is an enticing therapeutic candidate for treating AMD, but high doses are required since FH is abundant (200-300 mg l-1) in normal human serum. Human FH (155 kDa), with eight sites of N-linked glycosylation and 40 disulphides, is a challenging target for recombinant production. Yet FH was previously expressed to 10s of milligrams in P. pastoris. In this study, methods were established to confirm that human plasma-derived (h)FH carries predominantly N-linked diantennary disialylated complex-type glycans, with monosialylated diantennary structures and triantennary structures in fucosylated and non-fucosylated forms, contributing to glycan heterogeneity. Functional comparison of native hFH, enzymatically desialylated (DeSia-) hFH and deglycosylated recombinant P. pastoris-produced (DeGly-r)FH showed that DeSia-hFH had the lowest affinity for complement protein C3b, its key target. Moreover, DeSia-hFH binds C3d, an opsonic C3b-breakdown product, whereas native hFH does not. DeSia-hFH had an improved ability to accelerate decay of the C3 convertase (an enzyme that cleaves C3 to C3b) compared to native hFH, but neither was as good as DeGly-rFH in this respect. In contrast, DeGly-rFH had reduced cofactor activity (for factor I-mediated degradation of C3b) compared to native hFH whereas DeSiahFH did not have reduced cofactor activity. These data suggest that sialylation of FH glycans may play a role in stabilising a conformation of circulating FH that is not fully effective, consistent with specificity for self-surfaces and resistance to bacterial hijack. Aiming eventually to produce human-like glycosylated FH in glycoengineered P. pastoris, the SuperMan 5 strain served as a starting point. While conventional strains of P. pastoris put hypermannosylated N-linked glycans on proteins, glycans on SuperMan 5-produced FH were shown to contain just five mannose (Man) residues. In further glycoengineering, and following unsuccessful efforts to use inABLE technology for this purpose, commercially available (GlycoSwitch) vectors were used to introduce genes encoding the glycosyltransferase enzymes N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) transferase I (GnTI) and galactose (Gal) transferase. These catalysed the formation of a hybrid-type glycan containing an N-acetyllactosamine (Gal-β(1,4)-GlcNAc (LacNAc)) antennae on a five-mannose glycan. Then two more GlycoSwitch plasmids, containing genes encoding α-Mannosidase II (ManII) and GnTII, were introduced into P. pastoris to catalyse the formation of a second LacNAc antennae. MALDI-TOF analysis found the glycosylation of this strain to be heterogeneous, containing the humanised diantennary digalactosyl glycan as well as other endogenous yeast glycans. This strain was designated SuperGal. Large-scale expression of rFH with terminally galactosylated complex-type glycans (Gal-rFH) in SuperGal yielded 100s of milligrams of purified Gal-rFH. Yeast-type glycans were enzymatically removed from rFH and the remaining complex-type humanised glycans were sialylated with a recombinant bacterial α(2,6)-sialyltransferase from Photobacterium sp. expressed in E.coli. Purified sialylated (Sia-) and non-sialylated (Gal-) rFH expressed in SuperGal were functionally characterised in vitro using SPR-based assays. In C3b-binding assays Sia-rFH had lower affinity compared to Gal-rFH. Both bound with lower affinity than DeGly-rFH. A similar pattern of binding affinity was seen for C3d. In C3 convertase decay-acceleration assays, all rFH glycoforms performed equally well and had greater activity than hFH. Conversely, Sia-and Gal-rFH were shown to perform equally as well as hFH in CA assays, while all three versions outperformed DeGly-rFH. However, in vivo complement activity assay carried out in a FH-knockout mouse model showed that humanisation of the glycosylation of rFH did not significantly improve activity compared to DeGly-rFH. In addition, analysis of the circulatory half-life of rFH showed that humanisation did not improve half-life. Further engineering steps will be required to increase the complex-type glycan site occupancy on rFH with a view to improving circulatory half-life and efficacy. However, this study represents a significant step forward in developing a therapeutically useful source of rFH.

Abstract:
The number of overweight adults has risen to two-thirds of the population, thus increases in energy intake, particularly from beverages are of great concern. Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intake has increased by 222 calories in recent decades, which contributes a significant source of added sugars to the American diet. It has been reported that water consumers have a lower overall energy intake (~194 kcals) as compared to non-consumers of water therefore substituting water for SSBs may facilitate weight loss and weight management. Evidence also indicates that diet quality follows a socioeconomic gradient, and that the environment has a powerful influence on beverage consumption. Thus, modifying the food environment could be a promising strategy for promoting healthier beverage consumption behavior. A large portion of the US population spends their day at a worksite making the worksite a viable setting for implementing environmental approaches to promote effective behavior change. At this time, it is unclear if a reduction of SSB intake would be a viable dietary weight management intervention strategy. Therefore, our purpose was to determine if water, SSB intake, SSB energy, total beverage intake, and total beverage energy varies with individual and environmental factors among overweight and obese employees from 28 worksites involved in a randomized controlled weight management trial. These findings may contribute to the development of tailored weight management programs aimed to improve beverage consumption patterns.

This aim of this dissertation is to explore how the development of Huwei Sugar Factory is. To probe into the transformation of local industry and industrial culture in Hu-Wei were influenced on the conversion of sugar industry under environment change. In 1906, the Japanese Ta-jih-ben system sugar company had established the sugar workshop in large scale by Hu-Wei stream, which played a significant role in the sugar industry of Taiwan (after World War Two calls the Hu-Wei Chief Sugar Factory). After World War Two, the Hu-Wei Sugar Factory remained a key position by sugar town historically. With the transition of political and economic structure, the management of the sugar industry had gotten into scrapes. To reduce the cost of production, the Hu-Wei Sugar Factory had simplified organization and employed picked personnel, upgraded the workshop equipment, and devoted to improving the output of unit's area in the sugarcane field. Moreover, Hu-Wei Sugar Factory had steadied the supply sources of raw material by the fewer competition crops in the area of raw materials close to coast, together with the superior geographical position in the middle of the Chuo-Shui Stream plain, Hu-Wei Sugar Factory had lead the sugar factory centre between Yun-Lin and Chang-Hua. Under the governance of Japanese, sugar factory had established close relationship with Taiwan; it made Hu-Wei had become a n industrial town rising in sugar industry. After World War II, the development of the Hu-Wei streets was influenced profoundly by sugar factory as well. However, during the depression together with the construction of Yun-Lin district court and National Formosa University, the development of city town gradually had departed from the influence of sugar refinery. Since the brilliantly history of past Hu-Wei was bound with sugar industry, due to the influence of culture industry, the sugar culture was appeared again. Hence, after a series of activities holding by Hu-Wei town in 1997, many residents were dedicated to be attentive to local culture and tried to find out the outstanding feature of Hu-Wei, the turning point for developing. By this trend, therefore; Hu-Wei would come out the symbolic image of the Capital of the sugar industry.

Because the production manufacturing cost of domestic traditional industry increases continuously, majority of the manufacturers migrate to the nation where the production cost is low or wind up. The domestic industry which the foundation of the factories still stays in Taiwan faces great competitive pressures. However, in the cause of the sustainable development and the sustainable operation of the enterprises, many manufacturers choose to join “tourism factory guidance” project that the government promotes, reformulate the factory, combine the concept of the related industry tourism and transform. They expected to be helped by a governmental policy and make the enterprises given a new life. In the environment of the huge upheaval, Taiwan Sugar Corporation is a kind of granulated sugar manufacturing business that highly relies on labors can’t avoid suffering the influence. Without competition, the sugar manufacturing factories in Taiwan face to be closed down. This article mainly discusses “Yamay Tourism Sugar Factory”. It is expected to discuss Yamay Tourism Sugar Factory through the space arrangement, the guidance of the route arrangement, the profound guide explication in the sugar industry, the cultural historical ancient buildings experience, the connection of local cultural and the strategic alliance and so on. Therefore, the enterprises are able to be sustainable operation. By investigating the related literature materials, it is referred to understand the enterprises how to transform. By using Five Forces Model and value chain analysis to analyze the ongoing problems that Yamay Tourism Sugar Factory face on both the external industry and the internal environment. By synthesizing contents of the deep interviews with the related staffs, cooperating SWOT to analyze the strength, weakness, opportunity and threat of the transformable operation of Yamay Tourism Sugar Factory, and finally matching TOWS strategy matrix can find out more effective proposals and strategies and propose the operative strategies and proposals that are contributive to the industry.

For more than three hundred years, sugar industry in Taiwan is important in its political and economical perspectives. Taiwan Sugar Corporation (TSC) earned much foreign currencies for Taiwan. Because of the low price in international sugar market and worldwide economic recession, TSC loose its competitive power. Moreover, TSC’s profits are diminishing by its high spending on staff salaries. Therefore, it is important for TSC to utilize and develope its land and human resourses to create its maximum benefits. To achieve this goal, the industry tourism is one of an efficient method for the enterprise to become diversify. In the recent year, TSC also places tourism planning as one of their important strategies. Grasping ability to understand tourist behavior is the key element to TSC’s success in tourism business. This research utilizes TSC’s Wu-Shu-Lin Sugar Factory as a case study and 521 respondents were surveyed. This research finds out that respondents of different demographic backgrounds have different travel motivations and constraints to Wu-Shu-Lin Sugar Factory; respondents’ travel motivations are higher than constraints, therefore, they traveled and industry tourism is possible to TSC; respondents travel motivations and constraints can influence their perception on the preference and importance of Wu-Shu-Lin Sugar Factory; there is gap between the importance and performance of respondents’ perception, thus, TSC has to improve its service quality; respondents’ perception on the preference and performance can influence their loyalty to Wu-Shu-Lin Sugar Factory. Base on the results, this research constructs a model of TSC’s tourist behavior which is to helpful to the future formulation of TSC’s tourism plans.

Abstract:
This thesis reports on an investigation to identify methods to increase the capacity or throughput of the six-roll roller mills used in Australia to extract sugar from sugarcane.The approach taken was to gain an understanding of the factors affecting mill throughput through the application of the computational milling model, developed in recent years at James Cook University. The computational milling model is based on general equations of force equilibrium and continuity and a general description of sugarcane material behaviour. The development of the throughput model was conducted in stages. Firstly, an experiment was conducted on a laboratory two-roll mill to gain an understanding of the factors affecting throughput on this simple milling geometry. A two-roll computational model was constructed to predict the observed behaviour, accounting for all mechanisms identified from the experimental results. Secondly, a three-roll computational model was constructed which was sufficient to describe the throughput behaviour of the factory six-roll mill. An experiment was conducted on a factory six-roll mill to provide data to validate the model. The three-roll computational model was tested across the range of geometries and operating conditions known to exist in Australian factories and its throughput predictions were tested against throughput measurements. The three-roll computational model was used to identify the main factors affecting mill throughput and was used to construct a data set across a wide range of parameter values. The data set was used in a multiple regression analysis to develop an empirical model that could readily be used to identify conditions for maximum throughput. The computational and empirical models developed during this investigation were shown to predict throughput better than existing models. Conditions for maximum throughput were identified and involved the openings between rolls, the speed of the rolls and the amount of water in the sugarcane material being processed. As part of the investigation, further development of the computational milling model was undertaken in order to advance the model to a sufficient standard for this investigation. A material parameter was introduced to define the hardening rule for the plastic material model following established soil mechanics methodology. Darcy’s law, describing fluid flow through porous media, was shown to adequately describe the flow of water through bagasse for a wide range of fluid velocities. Greater confidence in the measured magnitude of the permeability factor in Darcy’s law was gained through improved experimental and parameter estimation procedures. One of the experimental and parameter estimation procedures was found to significantly reduce the time involved in measuring both the hardening rule for the plastic material model and the permeability for Darcy’s law.

Sugar industrial heritage has witnessed several eras in Taiwan. From the historic perspective, the sugar industry had always played an important role in Taiwan. Since Koxinga governed Taiwan in the Ming Dynasty, sugar factories in Taiwan produced sugar by hand, which was replaced by machine production due to growing needs during the Japanese ruling period. As the result the sugar industry prospered, helping the society and country to grow. Sugar factories, sugarcane farms and the Taiwan Sugar Railways were the three major elements behind the sugar industry’s contribution to Taiwan. However, since Taiwan’s retrocession, the economy shifted from an agriculture-based economy to an industry-oriented economy. Later in the 1980s, the economy further transformed to a service sector and high technology-based economy. Therefore, the sugar industry, which was said to be the mother of Taiwan’s culture, has lost its dominant role in Taiwan’s economic development. As the sugar industry changed, production ceased and many factories were shut down due to high cost and low revenues. Many factories were abandoned or struggled to find a chance to get on their feet again. Environmental texturing and the old buildings, which changed as time went by, were often torn down without prior and careful evaluations. The last few sugar industry buildings still standing are precious cultural heritage of the industry. They represent the culture from the Japanese ruling era and are key components as we explore the history of the sugar industry’s development in all eras in Taiwan. The 15th International TICCIH Congress was held in Taiwan in 2012, during which experts and scholars from 26 countries visited the XiHu Sugar Factory, all impressed at how well the factory preserved its rich sugar industrial heritage. The Congress’ former secretary general, Mr. Stuart Smith, stated that he has traveled the world and has never seen anything like this. The manufacturing process, SL346 Steam Locomotive (Yamagata Prefecture in Japan has the other locomotive in dynamic preservation - #347), sugarcane cart, molasses tanks and other sugar railway relics are so well preserved at this factory. Therefore this study aims to explore the value of the sugar industrial heritage and formulate its preservation strategy, using Chi-hu Sugar Factory in Changhua County as the case study. By analyzing the environmental resources and development issues around the factory.

Before 1908, Sin-Ying was a typical rural village under the Japanese rule in southern Taiwan where sugar was made in old-fashion way during winter season. But a new modern sugar factory came to Sin-Ying then and brought about significant changes of this rural community. It jump-started the process of Sin-Ying’s industrialization, urbanization, and modernization. First of all, the onset of rural industrialization had impacts on crops produced by farm families in Sin-Ying. Sugar cane was never a main crop until now. Moreover, the prosperity of Sin-Ying was attributed to the development of the sugar industry. With the railroad and sugar railway crisscrossing Sin-Ying and its hinterland, Sin-Ying had become the commercial and administrative center of the region. Employment in non-agricultural sector increased substantially and the demographic transition was underway. Mortality in Sin-Ying began to decline but fertility remained high. Although industrialization, urbanization, and modernization had continued after restoration of Taiwan back to ROC in 1945, agricultural-based industrialization faced great difficulties for Sin-Ying, especially this modern sugar factory. In addition, due to island wide rapid industrialization and urbanization, out-migration had persisted since 1960s. Closure was a realistic option for Sin-Ying sugar factory from 1980s onward. And indeed, it was shut down in 2001. Meanwhile, Sin-Ying’s total population has begun to decline since 2008. Key words: Sin-Ying sugar factory, industrialization, the demographic transition, factory closure

The development of Jiali region is very early. In the period of Koxinga Dynasty, troops reclaimed land here. Except for general agricultural production, sugar manufacturing is also an important industry in the region. One can know the history of sugar industry development from the word of “workshop” in place names. The old name of Jiali Sugar Factory is Xiaolong Factory built in Meiji 41st Year (1908). It is the first sugar manufacturing factory built by Japan Meiji Sugar Manufacturing Company in Taiwan. The establishment of Jiali Sugar Factory appeared a settlement mod that is different from former surrounding villages. In production mode, it replaced local traditional sugar workshops. Taking the advantage of mechanical mass production, it became a monopolistic producer. Certainly, it would bring changes to traditional agricultural structure. In the function of residence, it belongs to mixed-type community, providing production, residence, entertainment, and medical treatment functions; in the organization of space, it creates geometric space with modern planning technology, so it has high degree of order and clear class division. There fore, as far as Jiali is concerned, the establishment of Jiali Sugar Factory opened a development opportunity for Jiali’s modernization. In the period of Japanese Occupation, Jiali upgraded from village to street, it is also related with the establishment of Jiali Sugar Factor.  After the Second World War, Taiwan Sugar Company took over Japan’s property, continued the production of sugar industry and residence type, and developed the lifestyle only belongs to Taiwan Sugar people. However, the interaction mode with local place needed to be adjusted at all times to adapt to the changes of environment. When the structural environment of economy changed, original production system would also change. Sugar factories were closed one after another, Jiali Sugar Factory was also closed in the tide.    Sugar factories processed ups and downs, the modern factory disappeared in the local scene of Jiali and receded from the memory of Jiali people. Whether the generation of Xiaolong Cultural Zone can bring new factors to the development of Jiali region and become the common memory again, it deserved our follow-up attention.

Facing changes in management and new governmental policy, Tai-Tang has embarked on an aggressive development of their tourist business, and diversified their management style in an attempt to facilitate an industrial transformation. Notable example of this are the Yue-Meig Candy Factory in Taichung and the Jian-Shan-Bi-Du Vacation Resort in Tai-Nan. The research objective of this thesis is to examine the problems inherent in the process as Tai-Tang develops in the area of tourism, as well as to analyze the possible differences in the development of the two examples mentioned above. This thesis shall provide a complete analytical explanation, and can be used as reference by the government for policy-making in of tourist trade developments, as well as a descriptive reference for the Tai-Tang Company. This thesis provides a multi-faceted analysis in the area of tourist development problems by utilizing litearture analysis, group focus techniques, and in-depth interviews. The primary findings are as follows: 1.The process of Tai-Tang as it stabilized its investment budget was too drawn out. This should have been passed by the land planning committee, proposal committee, board of directors, national industry committee, and the Legislative Yuan two years ago. Consequently, the budget implementation and marketability were negatively affected. due to the great deal of wasted time of its review and amendment. 2.Tai-Tang lacks professional employees for the development of their tourist operations. They should aggressively train new employees such that they are responsible for specific case development duties. This will enable their smooth development in the tourist industry. In addition, Tai-Tang should focus on tourist operations management, and hire experienced managers to help inspire change in the working attitude of employees. 3.Tai-Tang should make facility alterations and obtain licenses for new tourist attractions before they begin official operation. 4.The rigidity of Tai-Tang management affects the quality and end result of its services. 5.The inability of Tai-Tang to use effectively bonuses to motivate workers is due to legal restrictions. Lack of motivation can result in workers feeling overwhelmed.

In recent years, the Taiwan Sugar Company (TSC) have closed out a few sugar factories in taiwan, and left behind the huge land and properties. Regarding TSC, in order to maintain the basic management work and administrative personnel''s job, reusing a part of factory district land and a few of the properties to start a new enterprise and to increase income source are important. After understanding industrial culture and enterprise characteristic of TSC, this research attempts the diversification business strategy which TSC carries on many years to take the starting point. On the base of the industrial’s and the spatial''s development relationship, we have reviewed the whole business of operation and the properties current using situation which in closed-out sugar factory district. Moreover, we also wanted to figure out thoroughly which factors have affected the reforming and reusing situation after the sugar factories colsed. We choose eight targets for this study’s cases, located on Taiwan''s various villages and towns. At present, these eight cases some of daily affairs, such as the cause of the business operation and the space planning are dominated by the Taiwan Sugar Corporation. By observation, field investigation, interview, we try to discover the problems that TSC reusing and reforming their lands and properties in those cases, when they transform their business strategies. In order to help TSC to establish new redevelopment concept and the spatial reusing strategy which belong to many closed-out sugar factories. Therefore, we carries on analysing many problems and generalizing some conclusions from collection of instances, especially about these closed-out sugar factories land and property’s operation to pursue its future competitiveness. Finally, making a description of this study briefly. Three group about land-using construction in sugar factory, workshop area, administrative area, dormitory area. Along with operational policy''s change, the closed-out sugar factory spatial development has focused on the economic value or the industrial characteristic space. We find that the four major factors impact on the staff who work in local sugar factory to consider the property reusing and spatial transformation. And the following four factors which affect the reusing conditions of the diction land and the properties in sugar factory are, 1.the primitive function of construction, 2. the character of construction, 3. the scale of land district, 4. the location disposing in factory district. Obviously, in these cases, the current using patterns and reforming situation of lands and properties are similar and shallow. They also lead to the crowding out effects between these cases, therefore, their earning is getting worse and the reusing states of their land and properties which in closed-out factory district is not effective. Under the experience economy and sustainable development ideals, integrating various of spatial resource all-round and promoting a multiple reusing strategy will Turn the direction which these closed-out sugar factories of TSC to carry on in the future.

The development of industrialization in the 18th century brought a strong impact and changes to human life, industrial development, and cultural history. These industrial construetions, industrial spaces, and industrial environments that once served as the focus of local development have changed in industrial structure, modernization, and urbanization. Under the development of chemical industry, the industrial heritage space is left unused and abandoned. In the process of industrial heritage transformation, obstacles and burdens such as poor perception, environmental destruction, and inconsistent economic efficiency are often encountered, thereby accelerating the destruction and removal of industrial heritage. However, the protection of cultural assets and the preservation of industrial heritage can be seen in the content of UNESCO''s international cultural heritage protection. These industrial cultures often involve industrial landscapes, sites, machinery and equipment, and related literature. As an intangible cultural heritage, it is necessary to include its relevant cultural assets in consideration when it comes to preservation and future re-use, so as to build people''s understanding and attention to local culture. The development of sugar industry is one of the important industries in Taiwan. In the industrial history of Taiwan, the sugar industry had a place in the economy development, and it also affected political decisions and social operations. In particular, since the Japanese sugar industry entered Japan with Japanese capital during the Japanese occupation period, it not only changed the sugar industry''s production model and mode of transport, but also had a major impact on the lives of farmers, the local environment, and the economy. Even though today''s sugar industry development is no longer in its former position, the past sugar industry has had a tremendous contribution and influence to Taiwan. Therefore, the sugar industry is still a subject worthy of review and discussion. Since the opening of the land, the land development of the Suantou Sugar Factory has always used agriculture as the lifeline of the economy, and the local residents have relied on the land for their livelihood. The expansion of industrialization has also allowed local agricultural production to continue in different forms of production, using the resources of local raw materials (sugar cane) to establish sugar production. The sugar industry is a large-scale system organization that includes rural landscapes, industrial landscapes, production structures, lifestyles, and other elements. It has created important cultural meanings such as local economy, industrial culture, local emotion, and industrial landscape. Therefore, this study explores the interaction and implications of the value of the cultural assets of the Suantou Sugar Factory in history, space, and the population. Based on the discussion of the definition of cultural landscapes and industrial heritage and the preservation value, the scope of preservation of the Suantou Sugar Factory and the value of its cultural assets were examined, and the integrity of the cultural assets of the Suantou Sugar Factory was attempted to be constructed. It is expected that the implementation of the plan will be used as a reference for the use of the Suantou Sugar Factory in the future to achieve the continuation of local memory and the inheritance of industrial culture.
