Beet vinasse is a final byproduct of the sugar industry. Sugar beet is processed to produce crystalline sugar, pulp and molasses. The latter are further processed by fermentation to alcohol. After the removal of the alcohol by distillation the remaining material is vinasse.
In the process of distillation of the alcohol and as a result of the heating in the distillation process, in the pulp of the beet reactions of condensation and predominantly molecular ruptures take place. This causes a high fulvic acid concentration in this byproduct.
