How to produce starch from cassava ?

Cassava contains a high percent of starch, but how to produce starch from cassava. This text will give you answer. As we all know, cassava starch can divided two kinds. One kind is native starch, the other is modified starch. Besides, the two kinds of starch can be widely applied into food industry and non-food industry. Cassava starch cab be used in such fields as baking, food additives, cooloidal thickeners, syrup or paper making industry and so on. From these, we can see that cassava starch has a promising future. The following part will explain the detailed information about how to produce starch from cassava.

Cassava with a high starch content

The procedure about how to produce starch from cassava include cleaning and washing cassava, cutting cassava, crushing cassava, the extraction and concentration of cassava starch, dewatering cassava starch, drying cassava starch, packing cassava starch.

The first step of how to produce starch from cassava is to clean and wash cassava(you can click this to see the video). This step involves two machine.: dry sieve and paddle washing machine. Dry sieve first clean the surface impurities of cassava with rotating its inner spirals. Then paddle washing machine rotates its paddle to wash cassava with water. The cassava will flow in the counter direct against water.

The second step of how to produce starch from cassava is to cutting cassava. Due to the big size of cassava, the cassava must be cutted into 3-5cm chips so as to be crushed by cassava rasping machine easily.

Cassava cutting machine consists of foundation, mainframe, cutter, motor and drive system.

The third step of how to produce starch from cassava is to crush cassava by cassava rasping machine. The machine can crush cassava into a kind of mush with high efficiency. It is easy to change the back screen and control the machine.

The fourth step of how to produce starch from cassava is the extraction of cassava starch slurry. The step mainly includes four machine: centrifuge sieve, fine fiber sieve, disc separator and hydrocyclone station. Centrifuge sieve and fine fiber are mainly used to remove fiber out of starch milk. The two machine have automatic front and back washing system to guarantee good screen penetration and ensure high-efficiency operation. They can deal with large amounts of cassava. Disc separator is used in processing of starch to separate protein and cell liquid out of slurry. while hydrocyclone station aims to purify and concentrate cassava starch slurry.

Peeler centrifuge

The fifth step of how to produce starch from cassava is to dewater cassava starch by peeler centrifuge. The most advantage of peeler centrifuge is that it can increase productioon capacity by 50% and decrease moisture to 36.5%.

The sixth step of how to produce starch from cassava is to dry cassava starch by air flow flash dryer. The machine can effectively shorten the time of drying cassava starch.

The last step of how to produce starch from cassava is to pack cassava starch by packing machine.

This is whole procedure of how to produce starch from cassava. And Henan Doing company will give you best answer for this question. Besides it also provides a professional team to guide you how to how to produce starch from cassava.
