A tapioca starch turnkey project refers to a complete solution offered by a company or contractor for establishing a tapioca starch processing machine. This comprehensive package includes all the necessary components, equipment, machinery, and expertise required to set up and operate a tapioca starch production line efficiently.

Tapioca starch turnkey project

The tapioca starch turnkey project typically covers the entire process from receiving fresh cassava to producing and packaging tapioca starch. It may include various stages such as washing, grating, fiber and protein separation, moisture removal, drying, sieving, and packaging of the final product.

Here we will introduce you the work process of tapioca starch processing machines used in a turnkey project.

Tapioca starch production line

Cleaning Process: The cassava undergoes dry sieving to eliminate any foreign matter adhering to the raw cassava. No water is required during this stage.

Washing Stage: Water is introduced in a paddle washing machine to further eliminate sand, dirt, soil, and other impurities present on the cassava in the tapioca starch processing machine. The countercurrent method is employed to enhance the washing efficiency.

Cutting Phase: The cassava is cut into 1-2 cm pieces in preparation for the crushing operation.

Crushing Operation: Crushing plays a pivotal role in determining the starch yield in the tapioca starch processing machine in a turnkey project. A highly efficient rasper is utilized to thoroughly grate the cassava into pulp, ensuring a higher starch extraction rate and increased starch production. The DOING rasper can achieve a breaking rate of over 94%.

Separation Step: The raw starch pulp contains numerous secondary substances that need to be separated through a series of processes in the tapioca starch processing machine. The separation process aims to remove fibers from the starch pulp.

Desanding Procedure: This step focuses on removing sand from the starch pulp to enhance the quality and taste of the tapioca starch.

Concentration and Refining Stage: This phase aims to separate insoluble protein, residual soluble protein, and other secondary substances from the starch slurry to facilitate washing, refining, and concentration of the starch milk in the tapioca starch processing machine.

Dehydration Process: Following the above procedures, the starch slurry still retains significant moisture and must undergo dehydration for efficient drying in the tapioca starch processing machine. Peeler centrifuges are commonly used for dehydration, with the wet starch's moisture content required to be below 40%.

Drying Operation: The dehydrated starch is dried to produce commercial-grade tapioca starch. The dehydrated starch is fed into the flash dryer through a screw conveyor. After drying, the starch is separated from the air in a cyclone separator, and the damp air is expelled by the draught fan.

Sieving and Packaging: The processed starch is sieved using a vibrating sieve to achieve the desired particle size before being packed by an automatic packaging machine into bags weighing 25kg to 50kg.
