TSC started as a sugar producer and its sugar-making process has successfully implemented both biological and technical cycles in the circular economy. The sugar byproducts are fully utilized; for example, bagasse is used as biomass fuel for co-generation, filter mud and molasses are turned into fertilizer for farmland, and the vapor from a boiler can be recycled for reuse. By reusing the byproducts, TSC sugar mills achieve a fully closed-loop circular economy. In 2023, Shanhua Sugar Factory partnered with the National Atomic Research Institute (NARI) to adopt Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Utilization (B ECCU) technology, utilizing alkali solution to react with CO2 in the flue gas to produce sodium bicarbonate for food, feed, medical, and detergent applications. The preliminary field test results indicated that the pilot equipment could capture 10 kg of CO2 daily, achieving a capture and utilization rate of over 95% to produce 20 kg of carbonate. TSC continues the collaboration and plans to implement the technology in its other sugar mills for on-site verification. Meanwhile, after scaling up the equipment, TSC will assess the subsequent economic benefits and applications, helping the sugar industry march toward carbon neutrality.
TSC, founded in 1946, is the leading brand of sugar production in Taiwan, and also diversifies into livestock husbandry, organic agriculture, petroleum, orchid, biotechnology, leisure, and retail business, etc. As a state-owned enterprise brand, TSC embraces “circular economy” and “net zero emissions,” and continues to lead industrial upgrading, fulfill social responsibilities, and serve as solid backing for national development and progress.
