Innovacorp India Pvt Ltd is a manufacturer, exporter, and supplier of Biocide for Sugar Industries in Ludhiana. The product is used in sugar mills and refineries to control bacterial growth in cane juice, mixed juice, syrup, and molasses lines. In sugar processing, bacteria such as Leuconostoc mesenteroides enter with cane and multiply rapidly in juice, producing the enzyme invertase that splits sucrose into glucose and fructose. The same organisms produce dextran, which raises viscosity and slows crystallization. Both effects reduce recoverable sugar. Our biocide is formulated to help mill teams control this microbial load at the points where it matters.

Why Microbial Control Matters in Ludhiana Sugar Mills

Anyone who has worked a crushing season in a Punjab sugar mill knows the pattern: cane sits in the yard longer during peak season, juice temperatures rise in the milling tandem, and within hours Leuconostoc counts climb. The result shows up downstream — syrup viscosity rises, clarification becomes harder, and pan boiling takes longer. Dextran in the final sugar also affects storage and export quality. Biocide dosing at the right points, at the right rate, breaks this cycle before it reaches the pan.

Where Biocide Is Used in a Sugar Mill

• Cane carrier and milling tandem: Spray application on cane and on the milling train to reduce bacterial load entering the juice stream.
• Mixed juice line: Dosing into mixed juice ahead of clarification to control Leuconostoc and other dextran-forming bacteria.
• Juice heaters and clarifiers: Controls biofilm formation on heat exchanger surfaces and clarifier walls, where slime reduces heat transfer and clarification efficiency.
• Syrup and molasses lines: Dosing at syrup and molasses stages to control microbial growth during storage and handling.
• Process water circuits: Control of microbial growth in mill process water and cooling circuits inside the sugar plant.

Types We Manufacture, Export & Supply in Ludhiana

• Oxidising biocides: For rapid microbial load reduction at cane carrier and mixed juice stages.
• Non-oxidising biocides: For sustained control in juice, syrup, and molasses lines, where a residual effect is needed.
• Combination programmes: Oxidising and non-oxidising biocides used in rotation to manage resistance and control cost per tonne of cane.

Biocide selection depends on the mill's process flow, microbial load, retention times, and downstream chemical programme. Final selection is confirmed after a lab trial and microbial load assessment.

Specification

Parameter	Typical Range
Appearance	Clear to slightly hazy liquid (grade-dependent)
Active content	As per grade — confirmed on technical datasheet
pH (as supplied)	3.0–7.0, grade-dependent
Specific gravity	1.05–1.20 g/cm³, grade-dependent
Solubility	Fully miscible with water at recommended dilution
Shelf life	12 months in unopened original packing, cool dry storage, away from direct sunlight

Final specification is confirmed against the technical datasheet of the specific grade supplied.

Application and Dosage

Dosage depends on microbial load, process stage, retention time, and the mill's existing sanitation programme. Indicative dosing ranges:

• Cane carrier: 2–5 ppm on cane, applied as a dilute spray.
• Mixed juice: 5–20 ppm on mixed juice, dosed continuously or in shock doses depending on microbial load.
• Syrup and molasses: 10–30 ppm on syrup, adjusted to retention time and storage conditions.

These are indicative ranges. Final dosage for Ludhiana mills is confirmed after a lab trial and microbial load assessment with our technical team.
