Process technology

CFTC’s process technologists provide technical support to the production businesses within Cosun. Their work varies from assistance during the sugar campaign, troubleshooting and process optimisation to process design and innovative process development. We are experts in extraction, crystallisation, extrusion, absorption, drying, filtration, etc. We also have expertise and experience in simulation techniques and mathematical modelling. A technology hall is fitted out to reproduce our business groups' processes on a small scale.
