Types of molasses based on extraction stages

Molasses is one of the by-products of sugar and sugar factories, which remains during the extraction of sugar from sugar beet and sugar cane after the sugar syrup has thickened and passed through the turbines.
This substance has an average It contains 45-65% sugar, about 10% minerals, some amide and a very small amount of albuminoid (fat). Sugarcane molasses is much richer in terms of sugar content than sugar beet molasses (65% versus 45%) so that in most factories they extract sugar from the resulting molasses.

Types of molasses:

Sugar beet molasses
Sugarcane molasses
Sorghum molasses

First extraction of molasses: First extraction molasses or clear molasses is a type of molasses that is extracted during the first boiling of sugarcane and beetroot and has a clear and bright color. This type of molasses has the highest amount of sugar and at the same time the lowest amount of vitamins and minerals. It has a relatively sweet taste. This type of molasses is often used as a flavoring in cooking.
Second extraction of molasses:Dark molasses, as its name suggests, is the result of the second stage of extraction and is For this reason, it has a darker color than the first type, and because of the compounds in it, it has a relatively bitter taste. Third extraction of molasses: Blackstrap molasses, which is the same as molasses. It is the third type, it contains the highest concentration of vitamins and minerals and is the final product of the third extraction cycle. It is worth mentioning that this molasses has the lowest amount of sugar and has a bitter taste.

Applications of molasses:

Application as fertilizer: Molasses can be used as a suitable fertilizer to increase fertility and improve soil quality. Molasses are rich in vitamins and minerals that are useful and necessary for plant growth, and their use as fertilizer can help increase the production of agricultural products and improve the quality of the soil. Application in medicine and pharmaceuticals (alcohol production) ): Another one of the most important applications of molasses is its use as a raw material for the production of alcohol. Alcohol has many uses in medicine and pharmaceuticals, and today, when alcohol consumption is increasing day by day, the need to use beet molasses has become more important than before.

Production of brown sugar with molasses: another One of the properties of molasses is to use it to produce brown sugar. Brown sugar is produced by combining refined white sugar with approximately 5% molasses.

Feed supplement for livestock and poultry: Molasses is also used in the production of livestock and poultry feed and adding it to fodder and animal feed. It increases appetite and, as a result, fattening of livestock. Molasses is used in the production of fermentation industries: preparation of acetic acid, production of baker's yeast, production of glutamic acid, citric acid, preparation of dextran, production of acetone, single protein. Cell and production of lysine from molasses is another application of molasses in the industry.
