All the above is only possible when donnelly chute levels are accurately sensed in a well tuned and synchronous mill automation. Imbibition water dilutes the juice in bagasse and reduces it viscosity The document discusses an automatic imbibition control system for sugar cane processing that aims to optimize water addition during milling

It does this by monitoring multiple process parameters like mill.
The imbibition water spared on mill is according to crushing rate which avoid the excess water load on boiling house, ultimately which save steam consumption,.
The objective was to design an automation system for the control of the imbibition water flow in the sugar cane milling process. Additional water, known as imbibition, is introduced in the final stage of the diffuser in order to maximise the extraction process Water that was added has to be evaporated before sugar is crystallised.
