Pre-Plan for High Fructose Syrup Factory from Groats

What is it about?

The aim of establishing this factory is: Fulfilling the need for fructose syrup sweeteners in the country, increasing foreign exchange countries in the industrial sector, expanding the volume of productivity, especially for industries that require fructose syrup. The process of making HFS from groats by isomerization is divided into three stages: pretreatment, hydrolysis and isomerization using glucoisomerization enzymes. Aspects of the pre-plan feasibility of the HFS factory: (1) economic aspects, namely Pay Out Time, Rate of Return and Break even Point; (2) aspect process; (3) technical aspects; (4) aspects of company management. The pre-planned HFS factory in planning is semi-continuous, 24 hours per day with 300 working days/year, production capacity 9475.76 tons of syrup/year, raw materials 2700 tons of groats/year, water consumption 2308 m3/day, steam 663 tons/day and electricity 150 KVA, fixed capital financing Rp. 16.17 M and working capital Rp. 3.3M, sales proceeds Rp. 23.69 M, total investment at the end of the period construction Rp. 21.32M, rate of return on capital 17.83%, payback period 4.41 years, break-even point 40.52% and period 2 year construction. Overall, from a technical and economic perspective, it can be said that the pre-plant plan is High Fructose Syrup from groats can be continued in the planning stage.

Why is it important?

Support the government to develop liquid sugar factories in Indonesia, thereby reducing imports of liquid sugar from abroad. The need in Indonesia is quite large, but the availability of liquid sugar is still not sufficient for domestic needs.
