Here is part of a text about the process of producing sugar. In this example,
answers
should be no more than one word and/or a number.
Raw sugar comes from sugar cane. When the cane is harvested, it first goes to mills,
usually
in the same region, and raw sugar is extracted from it. This is then sent in bulk
to refineries, which are often located in heavy sugar-consuming countries. There are
several
stages in the refining process, starting with affination, which includes the
removal of various impurities by using a centrifuge.
Eventually, the recovery stage is
reached, which leaves white sugar and a sweet by-product which is often used as
cattle feed.
