Before tapioca starch production process generally are: Tapioca tubbers - Sorting and Weighing - Washing and Peeling - Rasping and (Disintegration) - Screeming - Extraction - Sedimentation - Dewatering - Granulation - Homogenizing - Drying - Milling - Packaging
While because of the new and advanced technology develop, Doing Compamy tapioca starch production process consisted by the tapioca cleaning and washing process, tapioca cutting and crushing, starch slurry separation, concentration, washing and refining, liquid starch dewatering, starch drying, sieving and packing. This can make the tapioca starch extraction rate more than 94%, guarantee the starch high quality, high whitness.
Following is our tapioca starch production process detail introduction from Doing Company:
1.Cleaning and delivery:
After weighting, cassava storage in the special area, then delivery by the conveyor to cleaning section. The storage area could put cassavas quantity can meet one hour production requests at less.
2.Desanding and cleaning
First use dry sieve to remove sand and other impurities, then cleaning by our rotary drum washer to completely remove the dirt in cassava surface. Use two cleaning grade,water can recycling use.
3.Cassava crushing
Doing Company newest rasper equipped with advanced technology, the crushing performance decided the starch extraction rate of cassava starch production process, our rasper can make the starch extraction rate to be more than 94%. Made the cassava starch production line highest ecnomic benefit.
4.Grit removal process:
The grit removal process during cassava starch production line, its function is remove the little inpurity particles to get a cleaning starch slurry.
5.Fibre filtering and seperating:
After grit removal, the starch slurry also contain the fibres,fat and proteins, this process in tapioca processing plant is used to remove the fibres from starch slurry.
6.Purification process:
Adopt 13 grade hydrocyclone system, make sure the fat and proteins removed completely from starch slurry,this guarantee the starch products quality of this cassava starch production line, ensure the starch meet all standards, after this process, we can get pure starch slurry.
7.Starch slurry dewater:
After purification process, starch slurry still high water content, can’t send to the final air drying,so need this dewater process, after this, make the starch water content less than 40%. As your different requests, we suggest you suitable dewater machine, usually choose the vacuum filter for the dewater process during cassava starch production process.
8.Starch air drying:
Air drying for starch is the best method, keep starch color white, and quickly drying,make sure starch water content reach to 12%-14%, meet the first class standards.
Fresh tapioca root is the only raw material for production of tapioca starch. Tapioca is grown in almost all the states in Nigeria and Nigeria has been rated the highest producer of tapioca root in the world. Cassava starch production in Nigeria has been an important point. The major item of supplies is the packaging materials. Others supplies requirements include factory wears (overall, hand gloves, factory shoe, nose mask), cleansing agents, disinfectants, etc. Electricity, diesel (for generator and project truck), Low Pore Fuel Oil (LPFO) for firing the flash dryer, and water are the major utilities requirements.
For another, we can install the tapioca processing plant for you, offer turn-key service.
