Sugarcane Sugar Decolorization and Refining in Pakistan
Lahore Sugar Mill in Punjab, Pakistan, implemented powdered activated carbon (PAC) technology from Xingsen Activated Carbon in 2024 to upgrade its sugarcane sugar decolorization and refining process. By replacing traditional sulfur bleaching, the project addressed product quality and environmental concerns, producing refined white sugar with a color value below 45 IU, meeting global export standards. Xingsen’s high-performance coconut shell-based PAC and technical support ensured efficient decolorization and cost optimization. The initiative reduced color values, increased purity to 99.9%, boosted exports by 30%, and cut solid waste by 100 tons annually, aligning with Pakistan’s environmental regulations and setting a benchmark for the sugar industry.
