cassava starch production

Cassava starch production line

Cassava starch production is primarily by the wet milling of fresh cassava roots . Starch is the main constituent of cassava. About 25% starch may be obtained from mature, good quality tubers.

Fresh cassava tubers are processed during season . Cassava starch production from fresh cassava roots can be divided into five main stages: preparation (peeling and washing), rasping/pulping/grating, purification (starch washing), dewatering and drying, and finishing (milling and packaging).

For cassava, the process of cassava starch production is relatively simple as there are only small amounts of secondary substances, such as protein, in the roots. When cassava roots are harvested or selected for starch extraction, age and root quality are critical factors. Cassava roots need to be processed almost immediately after harvest, as the roots are highly perishable and enzymatic processes accelerate deterioration within 1-2 days. A first-rate quality starch can be obtained from cassava using only water, and this makes the processing of cassava starch and flour particularly suitable for developing countries and rural industries.
