The shredder breaks apart the cane and ruptures
the juice cells. Rollers are used to separate
sugar juice from the fibrous material, called
bagasse.

As the carbon dioxide travels through the liquid,
it forms calcium carbonate, which precipitates
non-sugar debris (fats, gums and wax) from the
juice.
