当前，在做优做强传统蔗糖产业的基础上，广西正加快培育糖业循环经济产业链。为推动资源的高效利 用、废弃物的减量化与资源化，广西凤糖深入实施创新驱动发展战略，目前已形成了糖、纸、肥、酒及 甘蔗多元高值化综合利用等多条蔗糖循环经济产业链，推动一二三产业融合发展，让企业增效、农民增 收、产业增值。 数据显示，2023年，光明糖业食糖销量近300万吨，食糖贸易量占全国第二，覆盖长三角、华北、华 中、华南、西部、东北等主要食糖消费区域，建立了以上海为中心、辐射全国的市场网络。 在距离凤山糖厂60多公里的鹿寨纸厂，庞大的原料堆场堆着一座三四层楼高的"蔗渣山"，工作人员正在 对蔗渣进行喷淋发酵作业。 "偏黄绿色的蔗渣是新榨季糖厂开榨后运过来的，偏棕黑色的这些是前几年留下的蔗渣。"广西凤糖生化 股份有限公司副总裁林斌说，糖厂是季节性生产，每年12月开工到次年4月停机，但是纸厂因为有稳定 的蔗渣供应和仓储可以实现全年生产。 据介绍，目前广西凤糖鹿寨纸业公司漂白蔗渣浆的产能近6万吨风干浆，蔗渣利用率为100%。作为再生 植物纤维，蔗渣浆特别适合作为纸模餐具的原料浆。尤其是近年来，国内纸模餐具需求和产能持续扩 大，使用蔗渣浆能减少木 ...
