THE NEW ZEALAND SUGAR REFINERY.

A Visit of Inspection.

(Continued from our last.)

Tho Char Department,

IlAvixr; inspected tho refinery proper, wo next proceeded up some seven or eight flights of steps — each suc cessivo flight narrower and steeper than its predecessor—to the top of the char cylinder house. It is so named from the fact that it contains 20 immense cast-iron cylinders, each 10 feot in diameter and 18 feet deep. Tho building is entirely constructed of heavy brickwork, and is about 90 feet high by GO feet square. It has two roofs, and is surmounted by a kind of Chinoso pagoda, to which many people have affected to take objection on [esthetic grounds. We understand, however, that it was not planned for ornamenta tion, but that its entire design, oven to tho very ball with which it is crowned, was shaped with a single eye to practical utility. It may not be generally known that animal charcoal, mado from tho calcined bones of animals, plays a very important part in the ultimate purification of sugar, but so it is. When the purified liquor leaves tho iron receivers, it still contains many in-

tangible impurities which must bo re moved, while its subtle colouring matter must also bo purged from it before it is fitted for the markets of the world. Filtra tion through animal charcoal is the only means whereby this result can bo satisfac torily attained. The charcoal, after having done service onfte, is ro-burned or re-vivi fied in kilns, to bo described anon, and as tho purified articlo is dolivcrod from the kilns on the bottom floor, it is blown up through a shaft to tho pagoda on the second roof by means of a powerful blast fan. Under the pagoda, the blast of air, which raises tho charcoal at tho rate of 25 tons per hour, begins to expand itself and finds vent through two openings at the sides of the pagoda. The blast pipe through which the charcoal is blown up is 20 inches in diameter, and in its rapid ascent it becomes thoroughly cool and aerified. From tho interior of the pagoda it drops into a receptacle, whence it runs "off through shoots to the twenty strong cast iron cylinders, there to repeat its function of clarifying the liquid sugar. By means of this process of rovivication the charcoal, which is in blackand finely-granulated pnrtielos, may bo made to serve for fully two years. Under the second roof the dnut is separated from the charcoal, inasmuch as its tendency would bo to hinder the work of filtration. Having now explained the use and purpose of charcoal, we return to tho char cylinders, which are filled with charcoal and ready for action. Tho sugar liquor has found its way into largo cast iron receivers that are super imposed over the char cylinders, and in due courso it runs from the receivers into tho cylinders. Onco charged, tho latter for several days afterwards keep delivering the twico purified liquor, now clear in colour and cleansed of all impurity. As each cylinder, when fully charged with char coal and liquor, weighs 50 tons, it may bo understood how massive are the pillars which are required tosustainthe exceptional weight of such a floor. The cast iron liquor receivers are also supplied with receptacles for hot and cold water intended for washing tho char filters and for ful filling many other requirements, of the refining processes. This water is carried about everywhere in a perfect network of cast iron and copper pipes, and its necessity may be perceived when it is stated thai 1,000 gallons of water arc used in tho production of every ton of sugar. After filtering through tho charcoal, the purified liquor is conducted back by an arrangement of syphon pipes to receivers placed in the building where it had pie viously undergono tho melting process.

Revivification of Charcoal.

Bofore, however, following it further in its progress towards the stage of crystallisation, it will be convenient at this stage to mako a short digression in order to explain more explicitly how tho charcoal, after being saturated with impurity, -is cleansed for further action. Each ton of charcoal is expected to purify a similar quantity of sugar liquid, and after that amount is acted upon it becomes more or less clogged. When it has, therefore, completed its pre scribed quota of work, it is withdrawn from the cylinder by means of a door at the bottom, and conveyed to kilns,' wlici-o tho agency of liro restores it once moro to its pristine cllieacy as a lustrant. A passage 5 feet wide runs between tho two rows of cylinders and an iron carriage in shape like an enormous sugar scoop depending from a wheel, which travels along a circular railway overhead, conveys tho charcoal from the vaiious cylinders to the kilns—this method beitig adopted as the granulated particles aro easily pulverised. Tho char kilnhouse, which is connected with the cylinder house, is U0 feot.in length by 42 feet in width, and is constructed entirely of brick and iron. Fully GOO tons of iron have been used in its erec tion. There are eight kilns, each containing OS vertical pipes of oval shape. Tho pipes aro subjected to intense heat, the equalisa tion of which over their entire surface is so cured by moans of tho numerous dampers with which they are fitted. As the charcoal, after undergoing tho process of re-viviiica tion in this fiery purgatory, must bo cooled without exposure to tho atmos^ phere, every vertical pipe has opposite to it, under tho furnacp, a cooling pipe. The revivified charcoal finds it way from the vertical to the cooling pipes, which are sup plied with an ingenious contrivance by means of which the quantity burned and cooled every half-hour is accurately regis tered. Having received its discharge from tho measuring apparatus, it drops into a large receiver, from underneath which it is carried on an endless canvas " creeper" travelling on pulleys to the blast pipe, whence, as alroady described, it is blown up through tho blast pipe to the receptaclo under the pagoda, onco more to find its way to and perform its required functions in the char-cylinders. Thus goes on in regular sequence tho processes of filtra tion and purification for further agenpy in filtration. On tho same floor as that con taining the char-cylinders is situated a hydraulic pressuropipe, which works a oago whoso prinoipal use is the i aiding of ooal to the kilns. Tho mills in which the charcoal is prepared from tho bones of animals are placed on a cast-iron lloor under the char cylinders. In fact, nearly all these floors are flagged with cast iron, as little combustible material as possible being employed in' the construction of tho buildings. There are no less than 300 tons of cast iron used up in the char filters or cylinders alone, about 1,200 tons in the whole dopartment, and about 2,000 tons in the entire refinery. The bottom floor of tho cylinder house contains the Wast fan and its feeding apparatus, the travell ing " creeper " from tho kilns, and a large horizontal engine to work the machinery of this department,"

Sugar Boiling.

Leaving tho bottom jjoor of this oliav department of which wo havo just given an inventory, we return through a door-way into the presence "of the Taylor flltors, und proceed to again follow the ooitrse of the liquor which we loft in the receivers after its purification by the charcoal. We pass tlio vacuum pang, ascend a flight of steps, and oross a span bridge on to a detached, raised platform. The purified liquor has been conveyed by pipes through tho wall from the adjoining char department to a spot below the flight of steps just mentioned, whence the finer quality of it ascends by other and smaller pipes to the platform upon which we now stand. Here there is an arrange ment of pipes, valves, and gutters lor carrying the refined liquor into various other receptacles. It is now ready for crystallisation in the two vacuum pans, each of which contains 400 feet of solid drawn copper coil for steaming purposes. They are made of copper throughout. Each pan is designed to turn out seven tons of crys tallised sugar at every "skipping." The pans havo large air pumps and condensers attached, and they are worked on-tba Torri cellian principle. Thp boiling ranges from 90 dog, yQ l? 0 dog. Fahrenheit, as required. These vacuum pans are perfectly air and steam 1 ight, for the very delicate process of sugar boiling must bp psrfurm&d in 'yqcuo, as the slightest excess of heat may prevent tho .proper crystallisation of the sugar, Leading' from tho upper dopio of each pun thorp is a largo I'ipe communicating with a condense}1, into which cold water is continu ally rushing. Tho eckl fluid intercepts the ascending vapour from the boiling liquor in tho pan and coudensßH it.; then, having fulfilled its mission, it is ■\vUl(di-;\wn by v pump. While the Uaucnf. is tb,us boiling [n the vacuum p^ns aj; a, comparatively ]qw tWßPWfftturp, thp sugar boiler sup.erinten.ds the. operation. I^i-s is perhaps the office whfch ci\ll3 fpv tho exercise of the n,icess skill for it is his duty to determine when the sugar is properly boiled. This skill is only acquired by long experience. By an ingenious appli ance he can, from time to time, withdraw from the vacuum pans portions of the boil ing sugar for inspection, It is.

undergoing the process of concentration into crystals, and the art of the sugar boiler is shown in the uniformity of the crystals which he can produce. He tests the samples which he withdraws from the pan by holding them up between his eye and the light, and by tho regular addition of more and more liquor to the boiling mass as the crystals increase in size, he has brought it up to the consistency of thick gruel by the time the pan is full. It is then run off into two semi - circular dishes called the heaters, which are situated under the pans. These dishes are supplied with strong mechanical agitating gear, which keepa the semi-fluent sugar mass from coagulating, Passing to the bottom floor, we next see the liquified sugar conveyed in a waggon over tho hanging railway from the heaters to the centrifugal machines. These machines are drums of some 3 or 4 feet in diameter, and from 12 to 18 inches deep, revolving with great velocity upon vertical axes. As soon as tho half-liquid sugar is emptied into them, their revolution hastens the escape of the mother liquor or syrup, and tho purged crystals are then discharged through the bottom of tho machines into tho waggon, which conveys them to tho lifting cages in tho fine-su gar store. Meanwhile, the escap ing syrup has passed away in a gutter from tho bottom, to bo further operated on in the refinery for tho purpose of yielding an interior class of sugar. The building wherein these latter operations take place contains two air-pump engines, one large diagonal engine for centrifugal ma chines, one large pumping engine for inject ing water to pans, Sir William Armstrong's hydraulic engine and accumulator, and one vortical engine for liquors and water. The steam, after actuating the engines, is used for all tho cleansing and boiling work of the refinery. Tho Fine-Sugar Store.

Wo arrive next at that department of the refinery which is termed "the fine-sugar store." It is also a brick building, with kauri floors and strong cast-iron columns, and contains* four flats or floors. Into it the refined sugar is lifted to the top floor from the centrifugal machines by a pair of com bined hydraulic cages, the sugar being conveyed to those cages in trucks. =. The truck having been landed on tho top floor, its contents are emptied through a hatch way on to a perfectly clean floor underneath, which is divided off into large compart ments or bins, co that the different qualities of sugar may be classified. These bins will hold from 20"to 40 tons each. On this floor, in which cool currents of fresh air arealways circulating, the heated sugar slowly gairiß its normal marketable temperature, and is then despatched through shoots into pack ing bags affixed to them on the floor beneath. Thence the bags are conveyed to tho delivery floor on the basement; where they may be either stacked or delivered as occasion requires. Sundry Machinery. Outside the refinery block there are planed five .SO h.p. steam boilers, Green's patent fuel econoraisersand chimney stack, which is 120 feet high by 9 feet internal diameter, also two benches, retorts for making animal charcoal and gas to light tho works, gasometer, &c. It is intended to illuminate tho entire works and town t-hip,as well as the wharves,with this gas. In addition to the machinery just enumerated, there are a workshop with lathes, planing machine, drilling machine (actuated by a Tangyfi engine and boiler), and engineer's store for general goods. The coal wharf is 4HO feet long, and on it are worked two self-discharging 2-ton trucks, drawn up the incline by an hydraulic winding engine. The trucks stand on a weighing machine at the ship's side while being loaded. Sundry Notes, The charcoal department is tho largest of the three refineries south of the line, and is a very costly piece of work. In the char filters or cylinders alone there are 300 tins of cast iron, and the department is equal to an output of COO tons of refinetl "sugar weekly. For some time to come, however, tho Company will be satisfied with an out put of 200 tons weekly. Six retorts, eaoh two feet in diameter, and similar- to those used in the gns works, are employed for the manufacture of charcoal. In order to prevent the admixture of foreigu matter with the charcoal, the retorts are fixed in front and charged at the back. The gasometer which is used in the manufacture of gas from bones, is 20 feet in diameter by 12 feet deep. At the suggestion of the manager of the Auckland Gas Works, oxide of iron is used for the purification of tho gas, and on Friday last the manufac tured article was burnt for the first time. As the Company offer £5 per ton for bones, the supply should bo plentiful and continuous. The makors of the refinery plant are Mirilees, Watson and (,'q,, Glasgow (the well-known furnishers of sugar factories), J. and R. Houston, Blake, Barclay and Co., McLean., Angus and Co., all of Greenoek.. Joseph Clayton, of Preston, England, supplied the steam bailers. The laboratory plant now in course of erection in the offices, Customs street East, was obtained from well known English makers. Tho engineer's tools were supplied by Tangye Bros., and Auckland herself has executed orders for timber and further goods to the extent of £30,000 or £40,000, while £30,000 more has teen paid in workmen's wages. 'The Dams, In Order to make sure of a reliable supply of pure water at all seasons, the Company took the precaution to seoure the sole rights to the creek. This was done by the acquisi tion of the land on either side of it from the private owners, while in the refinery build, ings two dams of great capacity were con structed. The lower one, from \vhich the boilers are fed, is of irregular shape, and fully two acres in extent, the "batter" of the embankment being faced with brickwork. A roadway has been formed up the course of the creek, by the side of the lower dam, and as far as the upper one. The wator in the upper dam is reserved for sugar refining purposes. It is 26 feet deep, and holds a million gallons of water. Tho Township. The workmen's houses on the spur above the factory number 35, as before mentioned, every one of which stands on a 66 feet section. In size they range from two to five rooms each, but the average is four rooms, viz., two bedrooms, sitting-room, and kitohen. Tho engineer and tho two su<*ar bailors ocoupy tho three best houses in the street. In addition, there is a store run by private enterprise, for the Company do not believe in tho truck system, while a lady from Auckland has anticipated the Educa tion Board by establishing a day-school on her own account. A seeped store has bee'", started on the northern side of the town ship. Provision has also been made forfja Sunday-school, the Anglicans have secured a site for a ohurch, and already divine service is held at the sugar works for the benefit of the employes. These at present number 150, of whom nearly 100 live in the township, many of the single men boarding with the married people. The remainder live on, this side of the harbour. As soon, as refining opera, tions, however, ar« in full swing, tho number of men employed will not ex ceed 10Q. Landowners on the northern side of the harbour have benefited by the Company's enterprise. Property )«| 9 doubled in value since its advent, ft.ncl while no one previously entertained the idea of making a home in su,c.^ a cheerless spot as it then was, houses and villas are now springing up in 'many directions. The Company Itself, Many persona l^ok, upon the Company as : a foreign combination. The idea, however, is quif;e erroneous. It is a New Zealand Sugar Companypureandsimple. True,theColonial Sugar Company, of Sydney, and the Vic toria Sugar Company, of Melbourne, hold a sleeping partnership in it, represented by one-third of the shares each, but the re maining third is held in the colony, and the Company is designed to supply the demands of the New Zealand market. It will be powerfully assisted by its connection with the Colonial Sugar Company, whose ramifications extend throughout the world, and whose agents are ever ready to buy in the cheapest market. The latter company has 5 factories in New South Wales alone, 4 in Queensland, and 1 in Fiji, besides having o-<tensive estates in both the latter i colonies for tho growth of the cane, Tho : output for this year alono wn.s 3Q,ftQO tons, It is intended that the heftd office at the New Zealand Si.tgftV Company shall remain in Auckland, where the financial manage ment of the concern is in the able hands of Mr Brewster, who has had good banking experience. Although hitherto the Com pany has purchased its raw sugar jn Java which was the cheapest market, it has made arrangements for growing its own sugar in future. For this purpose an es tate of 4,000 acres h fts been purchased on the 80. cp,jst, at Fiji, and already coloured kb.our to the extent of 2,000 hands is en gaged \n propariug the thst crop. These particulars win convey a pretty correct idea oi the magnitude of the operations to which the Company has committed itself and the benefits which the colony in general and this city in particular may expect to derive from them. Only the other day, when the advent to office of the Stout-Voeel Ministry was heralded by the report that they proposed to increase the sugar duty the Company paid a Bum of £17,000 by Way of duty on the sugar which they have at present m. bond. This represents only 3,700

tons, while 6,000 tons more are expected from Java, besides 2,000 tons from Fiji, The scope afforded in this colony for the , Company's operations is indicated by the fact that tho total quantity of raw Bugar imported into New Zealand last year was only 577 tons, while the colony's consump. tion of refined sugars is set forth in the fol lowing table of imports in that commodity alone for the past three years:— Total From Total J)utv Year.

Any notice of the sugar refinery would be incomplete which did not bestow a few remarks upon Mr James Muir, the Company's able and energetic working manager. No better or more capable man could have been obtained for the purpose. Ho is thoroughly conversant with sugar refining in all its branches, and many of the largest refineries in tho world have been erected under his superintendence. He hails from Greenoek, Scotland, and entered the first sugar refinery in 1857. He is a nephew of tho late Mr Blake, sugar refinery architect and engineer, whoso firm have erected many of the best refineries in England and abroad. The firm of Blake, Barclay and Company have just finished a very large refinery in Hong Kong. Mr Muir came to Melbourne in 1872, in order, to erect the large- refinery at Yarraville fcp Joshua Brothers, of London. Thence l_g was transferred to the Colonial Sugar Com pany's employ, and for them erected Pyr} mont refinery in Sydney, and Broadwatec factory on the Richmond River. Mr Muir is most popular with his workmen, andhia employers could hardly have a more skilful, and trustworthy servant. It is but right ta mention that Mr Muir was assisted in thg building of the refinery by Mr G. A. Turner,1 engineer of the refinery, and Mr William Lockington, foreman carpenter, both abla and efficient men. Mr Turner lias been engaged in the Colonial Sugar Company's works in several places, but has only lately come to Auckland to assist in the erection of the refinery. Mr Lockington was for a. long time employed as contractor on tha' West Coast of this colony. Our Departure. The sun was setting er<s we had completed our inspection of the buildings and the various points of interest about the settle ment, and, indisposed to find ourselves belated, we struck a bee-line for the wharf with all possible speed. The Customs officer was also desirous of reaching the other shore. To our joint chagrir, the ferry steamer lay snugly ensconced at Birkenhead Wharf with the evident intention of making it her terminus for tho trip. After idly Hut tering our handkerchiefs for some time as signals of distress, ye were offered pas sages on board the Auckland Timber Co.'a steamer Terror, which had just brought ■across a load of timber. The offer waa eagerly accepted, and a few minutes later we were steaming back to tho city, leaving moored to tho Sugar Co.'s wharves its' steamer the Zephyr, the coal-laden schooner Columbia, and in the bay the new barga which Mr Bailey has just built for tna Company,
