Edible starch is a carbohydrate extracted from plants and is widely used in food, medicine, papermaking and other industries. Its production equipment varies according to the raw materials and processes, but the main process includes raw material processing, starch extraction, refining and drying.
1. Processable materials
Edible starch production equipment can process a variety of starch-rich plant materials, mainly including:
Cereals: corn, wheat, rice, sorghum, etc.
Potatoes: potatoes, cassava, sweet potatoes, etc.
Beans: mung beans, peas, broad beans, etc.
Others: kudzu root, lotus root, lily, etc.
2. Main equipment composition
Edible starch production line usually consists of the following equipment:
1） Raw material processing equipment:
Cleaning equipment: Remove impurities in raw materials, such as stones, metals, straw, etc. Commonly used equipment include vibrating screen, specific gravity stone remover, magnetic separator, etc.
Conveying equipment: Convey raw materials to each process, commonly used equipment include belt conveyor, bucket elevator, screw conveyor, etc.
Crushing equipment: Crush raw materials into a particle size suitable for starch extraction, commonly used equipment include hammer mill, claw mill, etc.
2） Starch extraction equipment:
Soaking equipment: Soften raw materials for subsequent separation. Commonly used equipment include soaking tank, soaking pool, etc.
Grinding equipment: Grind the soaked raw materials to release starch particles. Commonly used equipment include stone mill, grinding wheel mill, pin mill, etc.
Separation equipment: Separate starch from fiber, protein, etc. Commonly used equipment include centrifugal screen, cyclone, disc separator, etc.
3） Starch refining equipment:
Washing equipment: remove soluble impurities from starch. Common equipment includes cyclone, washing screen, etc.
Dehydration equipment: reduce the moisture content of starch. Common equipment includes centrifuge, vacuum filter, etc.
Drying equipment: dry starch to store moisture safely. Common equipment includes air flow dryer, flash dryer, drum dryer, etc.
4）Other auxiliary equipment:
Wastewater treatment equipment: treat wastewater generated during the production process to meet environmental protection requirements.
Packaging equipment: package finished starch into bags or cans.
Automated control system: realize automated control of the production process, improve efficiency and product quality.
3. Equipment selection
Equipment selection needs to be considered comprehensively based on factors such as raw material characteristics, production scale, and product quality requirements. For example, corn starch production often uses wet process, while cassava starch is mostly produced using dry process.
4. Development Trend
In the future, edible starch production equipment will develop in the following directions:
Large-scale and automated: improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs.
Energy saving and environmental protection: reduce energy consumption and reduce pollution emissions.
Intelligent: realize intelligent control of the production process and improve product quality stability.
In short, edible starch production equipment is an important foundation of the starch industry, and its technical level directly affects the quality and output of starch. With the advancement of science and technology, edible starch production equipment will continue to upgrade, providing strong support for the development of the starch industry.

Henan Huatai Grain and Oil Machinery Co., Ltd., your trusted supplier of starch production equipment!
Well, maybe you have the following questions, how much does a starch plant cost? How to build a turnkey starch production plant? We will answer your doubts in two parts.
First, building a starch production plant requires considerable resource investment and many aspects need to be considered. The main process is as follows: preliminary communication, making requirements, our factory technicians propose design plans, come to our factory for inspection, sign contracts, equipment production, delivery, overseas installation, equipment operator training, trial operation and formal production.
In this process, you need to consider the following practical issues.
1) Are you building a factory for the first time, or are you expanding? For example, if you previously owned a starch processing plant, you want to expand the production scale and build another production line for market reasons.
2) Do you have a stable supply of related materials? For example, you have land for growing cassava, sweet potatoes, or potatoes, or other grains, or you have signed a cooperative procurement agreement with local farmers. You can provide us with the raw material capacity you need to process and how many tons you need to process per day, and we will design a complete production line for you based on your production capacity.
3) Do you have the qualifications to build a factory, do you have land that meets the requirements for starch processing plant construction and sufficient funds to build a factory?
Through comprehensive consideration of these three aspects, you can consider whether you meet the conditions for establishing a starch production plant.
Second, if you think you really need to purchase equipment or build a factory, please provide the following information. Based on these situations, we will provide you with the most suitable solution for you, including starch flow chart and equipment configuration list. If it is a general contracting project, we will provide you with detailed quotations for civil engineering, steel structure, personnel training, etc. after later communication. Therefore, please provide the following information in the form below so that we can provide you with a detailed quotation, such as:
1) Your starch processing technology requirements: starch production, grinding or deep processing, or other processes;
2) Starch plant materials and capacity: For example, how many tons of cassava do you want to process per day?
3) In which country is your project located? Can you leave your company name?
4) Other special funding and land requirements, such as adjusting the process flow according to funding conditions, adjusting the process flow according to topography and environment, etc.?
The more detailed the information, the more efficient we can serve you.
