Cassava flour factories in Nigeria

Cassava are rich in Nigeria, and cassava flour is a kind of main food in Nigeria. So cassava flour is hot sale in Nigeria. However, there are few large cassava flour factories in Nigeria. And many local people adopt local ways to process cassava flour. But in that way, the bugs will exist easily in this kind of cassava flour. While the article will explain the process of cassava flour factories running by machines. Doing company is one of excellent companies to produce cassava flour processing machine. And we also export the machines to Nigeria, and there has already been some cassava flour factories in Nigeria.

The whole processing line mainly includes fresh cassava reception—cassava cleaning and washing—cassava crushing and milling—cassava flour slurry de-sanding—cassava flour slurry de-watering—cassava flour milling—cassava flour drying-- cassava flour sieving and packing.

Step 1. cassava reception.

The fresh cassava must be chosen, and the cassava should be transported to the hopper, in order to guarantee feeding uniformly.

Step 2. cassava cleaning and washing

Cassava then will be transported to dry sieve in order to clean cassava, and this process can also remove some peels of cassava. After that paddle washing machine will wash cassava by using counter current working principle. This step can remove most of peels, so peeling machine can be removed in cassava flour factories in Nigeria.

Step 3. cassava crushing and milling

Cassava will be crushed by rasper. Since the machine has a high extraction rate, the cassava flour produced by this kind of machine is finer than that made by hand. The machine can crush cassava into a kind of mush with high efficiency.

Step 4. cassava flour slurry de-sanding

De-sanding machine is also needed in the cassava flour factories in Nigeria. If the cassava will be not washed clean, the cassava flour slurry still contain some sands. So de-sanding machine can be used to remove some sands out of it, which can improve the quality of cassava flour.

Step 5. cassava flour slurry de-watering

Then cassava flour slurry will be dehydrated by plate and frame filter press. The machine can realize a high degree of automation. So it can realize automatic pressing, filtering, draining, squeezing, loosening and so on.

Step 6. cassava flour milling

After dewatering, the cassava flour will become flour cake. The next step in cassava flour factories in Nigeria is to mill the cassava flour cake. This step can also help the dryer normal running.

Step 7. cassava flour drying

After drying, the cassava flour will be dried by flash dryer.  Flash dryer can dry cassava flour in a short time.

Step 8. cassava flour sieving and packing

Cassava flour will be sieved by vibration sieving machine, the machine has different size of meshes. So it can screen big size of cassava flour. Then the big size flour will be ground again. Then the final cassava flour will be packed by automatic packing machine.

This is the whole cassava flour processing line of cassava flour factories in Nigeria.
