Invert Sugar Production
Invert Sugar Operating Costs & Plant Construction Costs
This report presents the economics of Invert Sugar Syrup production from raw sugar (sucrose) using a process similar to the European Sugar Holdings S.A.R.L. technology. In the process under analysis, raw sugar is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugar). This inversion reaction occurs in an ion-exchange resin bed. The economic analysis presented is based on a plant constructed in Germany
The report provides a comprehensive study of Invert Sugar production and related Invert Sugar production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Invert Sugar production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Invert Sugar plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Invert Sugar plant operating costs (Opex).
The Invert Sugar production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Invert Sugar plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Invert Sugar plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.

Product
Invert Sugar. Invert Sugar (a.k.a. Invert Syrup) is one commercially available liquid-sugar product. It is produced from the inversion (or hydrolysis) of sucrose into glucose and fructose. The result is a product with greater sweetening power and improved microbiological stability, when compared to sucrose.
Raw Material
Raw Sugar. Raw sugar is a commodity product which is light brown in color and presents from 96 to 99 wt% of sucrose. Since it is not an edible product, it must undergo a refining process to become a refined sugar (more than 99.9 wt% sucrose), a product suitable to food applications. This may be accomplished in the same sugar factory where raw sugar was produced or in stand-alone refineries. It is commercialized as a granular product, and can be produced either from sugarcane or sugarbeet, depending on climate conditions. Sugarcane is cultivated in tropical and subtropical areas, while sugarbeet is more suitable to temperate zones.

L-Lysine-HCl Production from Raw Sugar
This report presents the economics of Lysine production from raw sugar (sucrose). Sucrose is initially hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugar). The invert sugars are then fermented to produce L-Lysine, which is recovered as L-Lysine-HCl. The economic analysis provided assumes a plant located in Germany.

FDCA Production from Raw Sugar
This report presents the costs associated with the construction of a plant producing FDCA from raw sugar (sucrose) in Germany. Initially, sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose and the glucose obtained is enzymatically isomerized into fructose. It is then dehydrated in ionic liquid medium, yielding hydroxymethylfurfural, which is finally oxidized to FDCA. The process examined is based in a non-commercial route.
