A PROCESS FOR DEMINERALIZING A SUGAR SOLUTION, AND A PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING A SUGAR PRODUCT IMPLEMENTING SAID DEMINERALIZATION PROCESS

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for demineralizing a sugar solution a using a sugar solution d comprising the following steps: i) optionally, an electrodialysis step of the sugar solution a and / or d using an electrodialyzer to obtain a sugar solution b; ii) at least a first capacitive deionization step of the sugar solution a or b using a capacitive deionization device to obtain a sugar juice c. Advantageously, the sugar solution d is obtained by discharging the ions from the capacitive deionization device in step ii) and undergoes a capacitive deionization step, in particular in step ii) and / or an electrodialysis step, in particular in step i). The present invention also relates to a process for manufacturing sugar syrup using said demineralization process applied to a sugar solution a.
