Potato starch production plant and machinery
The process and main equipment used in potato starch production plant Fresh potato (conveyor)-cleaning and washing(dry sieve, rotary washing machine)-crushing (rasper)-starch slurry separation (centrifugal sieve, fine fiber sieve)-sand removal (desander) -protein separation (hydrocyclone station)-dehydration(vacuum filter)-Drying (flash dryer) Potato starch production plant 1. Raw material cleaning and washing The role of this unit in potato starch production plant is mainly to remove the sediment from the outer skin of the potato, and wash away the epidermis of the roots of the potato. Cleaning the fresh potatoes as raw materials for the production of starch is the basis for ensuring the quality of the starch. The cleaner the raw material, the better the quality of the starch. 2. Grating potato to extract starch The grinding unit is one of the most important part for potato starch production plant which determines the potato starch extraction rate. High-efficiency rasping...
