Cassava starch making process and mainly used cassava starch processing machine

As the main cassava deep processing products, cassava starch is extensively used in food, medicine, textile, paper making, feed, chemical and other industries.  But how to produce starch from cassava? Doing Company as an enterprise specialized in cassava deep processing equipment, our engineer can provide a professional and practical answer for you.

Cassava starch making process

Here are cassava starch making process:

1. Raw material cleaning and washing: The first point to process the cassava is cleaning. Dry sieve is widely used for cleaning in cassava starch making process whose main function is to remove sand, mud, leaves and other debris. Then the paddle wash machine is used for washing process which combines flushing with a low water level and continuous removal of dirt and peels. The wash water may be recycled after filtering off peels on a rotary screen and settling of sand in basins.

2. Extraction of cassava starch
Cassava cutting and crushing: The washed cassava tubers are conveyed through conveyor belt to the cutting machine. In this section, the cassava roots are chopped into pieces so as to ensure a properly feeding into the resper. Crushing is an key factors which determines the extraction rate of cassava starch in cassava starch making process. DOING rasper fully absorbs advanced technologies from home and abroad whose breaking rate is more than 94%.

3. Starch and residue separating: These two cassava starch processing machines are used for separate fibers from starch slurry. For theses two machinery, washing water is designed on the front and back of the screen basket to ensure that the screen mesh is not blocked by cassava residue. They are features with high starch extraction rate and good screening effect.

4. Desanding: After the separating section, the starch slurry still contains sand which need to be removed by desander machine. The function of desander in cassava starch making process is to fully remove the fine impurities in starch so as to ensure the taste and quality of starch.

5. Concentration and refiningStarch slurry refining is accomplished by hydrocyclone station, which is used for separation of fine slag, protein separation, washing, concentration and refining of starch slurry. This cassava starch processing machine has advantages of compact structure, high separation precision and good sealing effect.

6.Starch milk dewatering: Peeler centrifuge is a cassava starch processing machine which adopts continuous operation and intermittent discharging. It is mainly used for starch dewatering process which can effectively decrease moisture content to 36.5%. The contact part of this machine is stainless steel which prevent cassava from pollution.

7. Starch drying and packing process
Drying is carried out after the dehydrating process in cassava starch making process. Flash dryer is the widely used cassava starch drying machine which features with high heat exchange rate and short drying time. The water content of starch product is about 13.5% through drying. Then the collected starch is packed for warehousing.
