How is tapioca made form cassava

Tapioca is also called cassava starch which is a cassava deep processing product. Cassava can be used for producing various products, such as cassava starch, cassava flour, garri and so on through a series processing procedure. Doing Company is a cassava deep processing machine manufacturer whose main business covers but not limited to cassava flour processing, tapioca processing and garri processing. Here we will introduce you how is tapioca made form cassava.

Tapioca processing machine

1. Cassava sorting section: After harvest, some cassava roots may be damaged or rotten. These are sorted to select the wholesome roots for processing; only healthy roots (without rot or other damage) should be processed.

2. Cleaning and washing section: Freshly harvested cassava roots are covered with soil, stones, dirt, ect. The roots are firstly  cleaned in dry sieve to remove the stones and weed in extraction of starch from cassava. Then the cleaned cassava is transported in paddle washing machine to wash away the attached stains and dirt. The water source should be checked regularly to ensure it is not dirty or contaminated.

Cassava crushing machine

3. Crushing section: This procedure plays a key role in how is tapioca made form cassava. The cassava root need to be grinded into slurry in order to release its starch from cell wall. Rasper is the tapioca processing machine used for this purpose.  DOING rasper introduces the advanced international technology which can achieve a high grinding rate and high starch extraction rate.

4. Separating section: The grinded cassava slurry then enters into centrifuge sieve for separating fiber and starch. In he centrifuge sieve takes use of high speed centrifugal force to separate the fiber with starch. For the question how is tapioca made form cassava, this is also an important procedure, and we usually take multi centrifuge sieve for a better separating effect. Then the starch need to be further processed in fine fiber sieve whose function is to remove fine fiber out of starch slurry.

Tapioca refining machine

5.Concentration and refining section: The next procedure for how is tapioca made form cassava is the concentrating process. The purpose of this process is to separate the fiber and starch slurry. Normally in order to have a better separation effect, this process will repeat four or five times according to different requirements of the different materials. For example, sweet potato normally needs four times, while potato requires five times. After every processing, it need take samples of the starch slurry to test the starch content.

6. Tapioca dewatering section: And the next step for how is tapioca made form cassava is the dewatering process. Vacuum filter is a widely used starch dehydration machine. Due to this vacuum filter absorbs the foreign and domestic advanced technology, it offers high dewatering rate.

Tapioca drying machine

7. Tapioca drying and packing section: The final used tapioca processing machine is flash dryer. The material contact parts of this machine is made of stainless steel which guarantees the high standards of the final cassava starch. And then the tapioca is packed for marketing.
