The tree-cutting until the end is characterized by joint efforts led by Yui Maru. Now, divided into 17 countries, the harvesting operations are being carried out from tall trees according to instructions from the party factories. Once, rice and wheat were grown there until they disappeared, but with the construction of the party factory, most of the land was converted into forest, and today sugarcane covers approximately 80 percent of the island's elevated land area. It is a sugarcane island that represents Okinawa until its end. The sugarcane harvested by SABESTA is stripped of its leaves and trash in the pretreatment process. The transported sorghum is cut into short lengths at the Kiyenfider and then moved to the compression process. In the pressing process, the material is pressed four times, and finally hot water is applied to thoroughly recover the sugars. The pressed bagasse is transported to the boiler and used as fuel. The pressed juice is pumped to the evaporation concentration process below the heating furnace on the second floor. The processing capacity of the newly built factory has increased from the previous 100 tons per day to a maximum of 130 tons per day. A major feature is that it is fully automated, with the entire production process comprehensively managed from this central control room. The juice squeezed by the press is heated with a heater and then reheated after adding a small amount of food-grade lime. Adjusted to the optimal pH for brown sugar. Furthermore, the clarifier separates the overlying liquid from the cake. Matt recovers additional sugar using a pre-coat filter, solidifies it into a cake-like form, and returns it to the sugarcane fields as fertilizer. At this sugar refinery, everything produced from the raw sugarcane, except for the brown sugar, is fully recycled, and nothing is discarded. The clean brine extracted by the clarifier is gradually concentrated while reducing pressure through four stages of vacuum pumps. Then, heat and concentrate rapidly at approximately 130 degrees using an open finishing tube. By stirring and cooling a concentrated supersaturated solution, crystallization occurs, producing brown sugar. Despite frequent setbacks from natural disasters such as typhoons and droughts, the production of black sugar in Hatelma has steadily accumulated solid achievements. We have established Hatelma-produced brown sugar as a leading Okinawa brown sugar brand. The high evaluation is supported by excellent quality. Sugarcane loses its sugar content immediately after being harvested. To maintain its freshness, Hatelma closely collaborates between its raw sugar factory and sugarcane farmers, producing black sugar shortly after harvesting. High-quality, safe, and secure black sugar, maximizing the freshness of sugarcane, delivered to many people. Hatelma Black Sugar Factory will continue producing high-quality brown sugar in the future.
