What is the guideline for producing cassava starch?

-

Cassava starch possesses distinctive properties that make it highly versatile in both the food industry and industrial field. For people want to involve in cassava starch processing field, it is necessary to know the properties of cassava starch and guideline for cassava starch extraction. Now let’s discuss them!

Properties of cassava starch

1.High viscosity: Cassava starch has a high viscosity, which means it has a thick and sticky consistency when mixed with water. This property makes it suitable for use as a thickening agent in various food products.

2.High clarity: Cassava starch has high clarity, meaning it produces clear and transparent solutions when dissolved in water. This property makes it suitable for use in products where a clear appearance is desired, such as jellies and glazes.

3.Gluten-free: Cassava starch is naturally gluten-free, making it a suitable alternative for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. It can be used as a substitute for wheat flour in gluten-free baking.

4. Good binding properties: Cassava starch has good binding properties, which means it can help hold ingredients together in food products. This property makes it useful in applications such as meat products, where it can improve texture and moisture retention.

5.High gelatinization temperature: Cassava starch has a high gelatinization temperature, which means it requires higher temperatures to fully hydrate and thicken. This property makes it suitable for use in products that undergo high-temperature processing, such as canned soups and sauces.

6.Low cost: Cassava starch is relatively inexpensive compared to other starches, making it a cost-effective ingredient for food manufacturers.

Guideline for cassava starch extraction

For the extraction of cassava starch, the most advanced processing technology in the world refers to the full cyclone process. Full cylone process adopts 18 stages hydrocyclone station to extract cassava starch through the unity of concentrating, refining, and recycling.

When the ground starch slurry is pumped into the hydrocyclone station, the 1-3 stages part separates the impurities like protein and cell sap out of the raw cassava starch slurry under the centrifugal force to realize the primary concentration. (As the slurry passes through the hydrocyclones, the starch particles are collected at the center while the remaining impurities are expelled through an outlet. ) Then the primary concentrated starch slurry enters the 4-7 stages hydrocyclone station for recovering the starch milk. Finally the filtered cassava starch milk will be pumped into the 8-18 stages for refining. In actual cassava starch extraction project cases, The stages configuration of hydrocyclone are adjustable according to the clients' requirements on the final cassava starch.

  Cassava is a type of carbohydrate that we can often see. In addition to simple baking, it can be processed into starch and then made into various foods or beverages and other uses. Therefore, for the special cassava starch production line. Companies need to choose the right equipment for high quality cassava starch production. Specifically, the techniques for selecting a cassava starch production line processing facility include the following aspects: 1. Select production process and cassava starch production line according to economic strength and market requirements There are many processing technologies for cassava starch production line on the market, such as full-swirl process, small and medium-sized simple processes, small and simple processes. The easy-to-use cassava starch production line manufacturers introduce some of them for large-scale production and use, and the starch quality is very good, the processing cost is relatively higher, and some are suita

Locally made cassava meal processing machines in Nigeria mainly adopts two processing methods to assistant the production, the cassava meal dry process and wet process. Here is the comparison of the two methods. The procedures of cassava meal production with dry method: Locally made cassava meal processing machines in Nigeria, which adopts the dry processing method, has the procedures like that: fresh cassava roots cleaning and peeling, cutting or chipping, drying and milling. Alternatively, some opt to purchase dried cassava chips and use a single cassava milling machine to obtain cassava flour. Although locally made cassava flour machines are inexpensive, their quality and working speed are relatively low. As a result, they are only suitable for small-scale operations and yield poor-quality cassava flour. The procedures of cassava meal production with wet method: Locally made cassava meal processing machines in Nigeria use the wet processing method, which involves cleani

The main usage of cassava is food, animal feed, and industry processing and develop. [Read also: T he Cassava Processing Industry in Nigeria: Traditional Techniques, Technological Developments and New Opportunity ]  Cassava roots is one of the main raw material in the world for industrial starch production. Now, world harvested cassava, 65% used for food. As a raw material for the production of feed, rough cassava flour and leaves are a high-energy feed ingredient. In the fermentation industry, cassava starch or dried cassava chips can be used to make alcohol, citric acid, glutamic acid, lysine, cassava protein, glucose, fructose, etc. These products are widely used in food, beverage, medicine, textile (dyed cloth), paper making, etc. So as the question what are the end product of cassava, there don't have definite answer.
