The main process of cassava starch production line

You can get the cassava starch from cassva,then the cassava starch can be used in food and many other industries.The what is the process of making cassava starch. Following is main process of cassava starch processing line.

1.Frist process is transportation and cleaning:

Collect the fresh cassava from stock ground, and transported by the conveyor belt to peeling machine for peeling and stone removing. After firstly remove the impurities on the surface, the fresh cassava is transported into washing process. After washing twice by trough conveyor and roller, the sediment and impurities on the surface of fresh cassava  have been basically removed, and peeling rate can achieve 80%. After cleaning process, the cassava will be transported into the crushing process

2.Second process is crushing

Clean cassava will be broke into pieces by flying hammer type grinding machine in order to break the organizational structure of cassava. So that small starch granules can be disintegrated from the cassava root. Water plays the medium here. After twice crushing, cassava becomes slurry. The starch slurry after the first crushing can pass through 6-8mm puree sieve. The starch slurry after twice crushing can pass through 1.2to1.4mm puree sieve. The starch is basically free and becomes a mixture of pulp residue, then pumps it into the sieve for separation.

3.Third process is filtering

Residue slurry mixture passes through four vertical separator to be separated cassava waste will be transported to the residue filed. And the starch extraction can already meet the standards of products only with protein, sediment and other organic and inorganic impurities to be proceeded in next process.

4.Fourth process is separating and concentrating

Starch will be pumped through the sediment remover to remove inorganic impurities. And then into the first disc separator, and then into the second disc separator. The main function of first disc separator is to remove protein, and the main function of second separator is to concentrate to be dehydrated. After the above treatment process, starch basically reached the requirements of the finished product. Following processes are dehydration, drying sections.

5.Fifth process is dehydrating

Concentration of starch out of disc separator is generally 18 to 20. After centrifuge treatment, the water content of starch deceased from 60% to 38 % - 40%; dehydration of water( containing about 1% to 5% starch) continues to be concentrated in the disc separator. The wet starch will be transported to the air dryer treatment through the screw conveyor.

6.Sixth Process is drying and filtering

Air drier is a saturated steam which heats air through the heat sink, The starch will be heated by the hot air drying to achieve the dry purpose. Negative pressure, no dust and energy saving is throughout the system. After air drying, the starch water content is between 12to14% of the finished product standards. To ensure the fineness of the finished product can meet the standards. We also need to check the screen to prevent the starch after finished the process of agglomeration in the drying, so as to ensure that the final product can meet the standard.

7.Seventh process is packing

After been screening examination; qualified starch will be measured and packed. According to different requirements, we can pack them into as clients' requirement.
