Potato Starch
Potato is one of the main raw materials for starch manufacturing in China, especially in North China. Compared with other kinds of starch, potato starch features with big starch granules, high amylose polymerization degree, low gelatinization temperature, high paste viscosity, good elasticity, low protein content, no stimulation, whiter, and not easy to gel and degradation, it is widely used in textile, oil exploration, feed and food industries.
In recent years, with the development in international and domestic food market, the surge in demand for high quality potato starch combined with potato starch’s irreplaceable natural attributes with other kinds of starch, making it the first choice for home and abroad starch processing industry products, its market prospects are vast and bright.

Key Starch Sources and Their Processing Derivatives
Sweet Potato
Germ is primarily used for edible germ oil production and various industrial applications, including defoaming agents in fermentation, lubricants in textiles, rubber fillers, emulsifying and oxidizing agents in chemicals. It also serves as a raw material for producing linoleic acid and ethyl linoleate.Corn steeping liquid is mainly used as culture of producing antibiotics and other fermentation.
Cassava / Tapioca
Corn fiber is the skin part of com, also known as corn bran or corn residue. Its main composition is not only cellulose, but also a large amount of degradable starch, half-fiber, a small amount of protein and fat. It is mainly used as feed ingredients, whose hydrolysate can be used for fodder yeast, and also can produce dietary fiber, etc.

Main Equipment
below are some examples of machines and complete processing lines suitable for the processing of corn starch
Cage Cleaning Machine
De-sanding Cyclone
Rasping Mill
Centrifugal Sieve
Hydro-Cyclone
Rotary Drum Vacuum Filter
Air Dryer
Cage Cleaning Machine
Cage Cleaning Machine
The cage washing machine is mainly used in potato starch, potato powder production lines for the raw material cleaning.
The machine adopts countercurrent washing principle. Material enters the roll cage from the inlet, and comes out at aid of spiral twist bar to the outlet. And water from the cleaning tank, flows to the inlet by the force of the roll cage spiral twist in the reverse movement with the material, the cleaning effect is excellent and the mud, sand can be removed effectively. The device has characteristics of simple structure, reasonable design, stable performance, low material crushing, energy & water saving.
De-sanding Cyclone
De-sanding Cyclone
The de-sanding cyclone removes the sand and other heavy impurities by centrifugal force differences generated by the high-speed rotation of the potato slurry after the rasping mill. It is an essential device in starch processing industry, and it can be applied to remove heavy
impurities in other kinds of fluids.
The device features simple structure, advanced design, selected material–conical swirl tubes can be made of high wear resistance ceramic materials, durable and high de-sanding rate.
Rasping Mill
Rasping Mill
The rasping mill is widely used in potato starch processing industry for potato crushing. Potatoes spin into the gap of stator and rotor in which it is crushed into granules, and the uniformity starch slurry falls into the basin via the sieve. The device is made of stainless steel, the rotor is made of special stainless steel by
forging process, and rotor is installed on hundreds of specially designed, two-way combination rasps with the thickness of 1.25mm. manufactures the equipment for customers wholeheartedly. The distance between the stator and rotor is only 1 ~ 2mm, which ensures higher efficiency of the rasping mill.
The simple rasp clamping system ensures rasp works in the best position. And it is very simple to assemble and disassemble the mill, there is no need to use special tools, general staff is OK. The capacity of the entire production line can be adjusted by adjustable speed feeding conveyor.
Centrifugal Sieve
Centrifugal Sieve
The centrifugal sieve is used to separate fiber and residue in the potato starch slurry. It is widely used for potato starch extraction in large and medium – sized starch production enterprises.
The equipment is made of stainless steel; the equipment surface is treated in a special process, beautiful and oil & dirt resistance. The rotating basket is corrected by the authority balancing accuracy to ensure that the equipment can run smoothly; inside mesh is manufactured by special plate, beautiful and durable. The equipment adopts the most advanced technology at home and abroad, it features big capacity, reasonable allocation of power, high starch extraction rate, easily assembling and disassembling.
Hydro-Cyclone
Hydro-Cyclone
The main function of multi-stage hydro cyclone station is to remove the soluble and insoluble protein, fine fibers in starch slurry, it is the key equipment for starch concentration, washing and refining.
The main body of the equipment is made of high quality stainless steel to ensure the material from erosion. The equipment surface is treated by a special process, oil & dirt resistance; the cyclone tubes are made of special nylon, high-energy and high efficiency. The multistage hydro cyclone station adopts the most advanced technology in the world, it features simple and reasonable design, beautiful appearance and stable quality, widely used in different capacity facilities by customers.
Rotary Drum Vacuum Filter
Rotary Drum Vacuum Filter
Rotary drum vacuum filter is widely used for the solid-liquid material dehydration and separation in starch, medicine, food, chemical and other industries. The equipment is made of high quality stainless steel, the rotating drum adopts frequency converter to regulate the speed. The drum is cleaned by automatic intermittent flush. The bottom basin contains a propeller-type agitator to prevent starch sedimentation. And it can be equipped with a continuously adjustable level control system. The filter uses scraper to discharge cake and scraping blade is made of high hardness alloy.
The device has absorbed foreign advanced technology, and features stable operation, compacted structure, low energy consumption, small working area, good performance, high dewatering rate, no noise, easy operation and maintenance, it is the ideal choice of large and medium – sized starch production enterprises.
Air Dryer
Air Dryer
The air dryer applies to various kinds of potato starch drying, it also applies to corn starch and wheat starch drying. The dryer is designed based on scientific theory, strict control of all aspects of the process configuration and technical parameters ensure the quality of the product after drying. It has characteristics of high drying intensity, short drying time, low drying temperature, less energy consumption and high quality products. The whole machine is made of high quality stainless steel, with characteristics of stable operation, low energy consumption, small footprint, good performance, easy operation and maintenance, it is the ideal choice for large and medium – sized starch production enterprises.
