Cassava Starch Processing and Equipment

The cassava starch processing can be divided into several sections: cleaning, crushing, dehydration, packing. Each section is connected but with automation to complete the whole process.
 

Cleaning: it is the key part of cassava processing and more important than cassava starch processing. Because cassava starch processing is without cleaning, filter part. Therefor, if there has sand that will affect the quality of cassava starch, and result in high impurity content.
 

The cassava cleaning equipment are: special cassava roller peel cleaner which mainly remove sand and skin on the cassava surface. Blade cleaner which adopts principle of bionics to wash sand. The scalperator for futher cleaning to improve purity, which with the peeling function at the same time.
 

Milling: cassava milling are different from usual cassava starch crush process, add less water or avoid add. It requires high fineness, and no filter to prevent nutrition flow.
 

Dehydration: dehydrate the material to dry the cassava starch. You can use dehydrator for small scale, vacuum dryer or scraper centrifuge for large scale, reduce the water content to improve drying quality and effect.
 

Dry: cassava flour and cassava starch dry are basic similar, but different parameters. You can choose air dryer, which makes high temperature gas connect with wet flour to remove the mositure to make cassava into dry material. After sieve reach the fineness of finished cassava product for package.
