Integrated utilization of sugarcane

Integrated utilization of sugarcane

This project is a model for the perfect utilization of raw materials, making full use of all waste involved. The input is sugar cane, an important crop in Egypt. It is processed to produce three different products, each of them is a profitable activity on its own: fancy molasses, a very nutritious food product with a serious export potential if produced at appropriate hygienic standards, particleboard used for furniture industry, in addition to a high quality wax suitable for many applications. The project has a substantial profitability, and a serious potential for growth, which in turn would create better market conditions for sugar cane farmers in Upper Egypt, which is generally characterized by very poor farming population. This will drastically improve the living standards of people of Upper Egypt through direct and indirect employment as part of its strategic vision.
