Is the cassava starch processing equipment the same as the cassava flour processing equipment? What's the difference?

Cassava starch processing line and cassava flour processing line produce different products and require different cassava processing equipment. As a professional manufacturer and supplier of cassava processing equipment, Henan Jinrui Company will analyze the difference between cassava starch processing equipment and cassava flour processing equipment from three stages: cleaning, processing and dehydrating.

Cassava starch processing line and cassava flour processing line

1. Cleaning stage

Both cassava starch processing line and cassava flour processing line are equipped with a cleaning stage, the required cassava processing equipment are dry sieve and paddle washing machine, but the paddle washing machine configuration used in the two kinds of processing line is somewhat different.

In cassava flour processing line, clean cassava is directly broken into cassava pulp and then the pulp will be dehydrated. So during the cassava flour production process, cleaning stage is generally equipped with specially designed paddle washing machine, which has the function of cleaning and peeling at the same time, so as to ensure the quality of final cassava flour. And in cassava starch processing line, cleaned cassava   needs the slag purification, starch concentrating and other aspects, which is helpful to remove the impurities,fibers,etc. Therefore, the paddle cleaning machine for cassava starch processing line does not need too high configuration, only need to have the cleaning function.

2. Processing stage

Cassava starch processing equipment and cassava flour processing equipment differ greatly in the processing stage. In the cassava starch processing line, it is necessary to crush cassava, remove slag and purify the cassava starch after cleaning the cassava. The required cassava starch processing equipment includes cutting machine, rasper, centrifuge sieve, fine fiber sieve and hydrocyclone station. The main function of cassava starch processing equipment is to release starch particles, remove fiber, protein, cell fluid and so on, and get pure cassava starch milk. In cassava flour processing line, by contrast, you can get the final cassava flour after crushing the cassava and dehydrating the cassava flour, cassava flour processing equipment is relatively simple. The needed cassava flour processing equipment only includes cutting machine and rasper.

3. Dehydrating stage

After the processing stage of cassava starch processing line and cassava flour processing line, the products need to be dehydrated. However, due to the different characteristics of cassava starch and cassava flour, the dehydrating equipment used in the two processing lines is different.

The horizontal siphon peeler centrifuge is usually used to dehydrate cassava starch. Under the action of centrifugal force, the water in cassava starch can be removed to 36.5%. The cassava flour processing line adopts the plate-frame filter press filter equipment with a large centralized control. The dehydration effect is good, filtered cassava flour cake moisture content is as low as 30%.
