¨Sweepings¨ is used in the sugar industry with a specific meaning and not elsewhere.

Thanks, most helpful!

In spanish, the word comes from the action of "sweeping" inside the machines and the remains are collected and apparently used for other purposes. However, I'm not sure sweeping would be the translation

(Food) waste

¨Barredura¨seems to be a particular type of food waste in the bakery industry. I have not found an equivalent in English. It is referred to as ¨Waste¨.

This is the use in Spanish:

Here´s a discussion of food waste in commercial baking:

http://bakerpedia.com/baked-wasted-food-waste-commercial-bak...

Below is a list of the causes of waste in the processed food sector. Notice the decription matches the one supplied above by the OP.

The top causes of waste are:

Machinery performance problems – such as product blockages and mechanical mishandling; product damage is estimated to be between 2.5 and 9%;
Poor quality production – such as over/under baking and over/under weight; reject rates average 3.5%;
Trimmings – such as un-reused pastry trim, bread crusts, tomato ends and vegetable peel;
Packaging – such as raw material packaging and scrapped product packaging;
Product disposals – such as products being past their sell-by or best-before dates; and
Market ‘imposed’ – such as last-minute customer order cancellations, inaccurate demand forecasting and a sudden loss of orders due to a change in the weather.
