Industrial production of food grade potato starch

Potato starch

Recently, the procedures involved in the industrial production of potato starch escalate in complexity, according to the specific needs of each manufacturer.

The starch grains contained in the potato cells are extracted by crushing the tubers, which releases them from the destroyed cells. The resulted starch is then washed out, dried to powder, and ready to use in either food or various technical applications.

This can affect all process stages, from the delivery and unloading of the raw product, to the potato cleaning and rasping, to juice separation; then to potato starch extraction, starch milk refining and dewatering and up to potato starch drying.
