  • Method for increasing yield of sucrose
    Patent number: 3992260
    Abstract: In a method for producing sucrose from beets or beet molasses by the deionization process using ion-exchange resins or the saccharate process or in a method for producing sucrose from beets without resorting to either of the two processes mentioned above, .alpha.-galactosidase is allowed to act upon the sugar solution, while in process, so as to hydrolyze the raffinose contained therein into sucrose and galactose. The raffinose-hydrolyzed sugar solution is returned to the process following the stage at which the sugar solution is withdrawn. Thereafter, the sugar solution is treated in the fixed sequence to effect the recovery of sucrose contained in the sugar solution.
