The Role of Heat in Global Glucose Output

The Role of Heat in Global Glucose Output

Precise temperature control is essential for the millions of tonnes of glucose produced for various industries annually.

Global production of glucose now exceeds 15 million metric tonnes every year. This versatile ingredient is used across a wide range of sectors, including food and drink manufacturing, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and textiles.

According to Food & Beverage Asia, the manufacturing process relies heavily on heat. Each stage of production requires specific temperature settings to ensure quality and efficiency.

To meet these strict requirements, manufacturers utilise specialised equipment such as scraped surface heat exchangers and corrugated tubes to maintain the necessary thermal conditions.
