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 comparisons where relevant.
My essay:
The diagram illustrates the process of producing sugar from sugar cane.
Overall, it is noticeable that there are seven steps in the process of sugar production. The process begins with the stage of growing sugarcane and ends at the drying and cooling stages.
As the picture displays, sugarcane plants first are grown in the field for a period of 12 to 18 months. Following this, the mature sugar canes
are harvested either manually or by a sugarcane harvester, and then they are crushed to extract a type of juice.
Looking at the 4th stage in detail, we can see that the juice is purified using a limestone filter. Subsequently, the purified juice is heated so that it evaporates and becomes syrup. the next step is called “centrifuge” where sugar crystals are separated from the syrup. Finally, the sugar crystals are dried and cooled in a large container and ready for consumption.
