How does a small scale cassava flour processing plant run?

With the popularity of cassava flour instead of wheat flour in bread making, the demand for cassava flour has gradually increased, and more and more people want to build cassava flour processing plants to earn more profits. But due to the limit of budget, many customers can not afford a fully automatic large scale cassava flour processing plant. As a professional equipment manufacturer, China Henan Doing Company relying on years of cassava processing project experience, have specialized design a small scale cassava flour processing plant to help the investor easily start their cassava flour processing plant.

Main equipment for small scale cassava flour processing plant

This small scale cassava flour processing plant can produce 4-6 ton cassava flour per day, mainly composed of cassava peeling and washing machine, cassava grating machine, hydraulic press dewatering machine, flash dryer, fine crusher, vibration sieve and packaging machine.

Following is the processing procedure of this small scale cassava flour processing plant:

Firstly, cassava peeling and washing. Put the harvested fresh cassava tubers in the cassava peeling and washing machine, then the machine will automatically peel cassava. Our cassava peeling machine is designed by experienced engineer which can achieve a peeling rate of 95%, can basically remove the two layers of cassava peel. During the peeling process, a water pipe can be used to wash the cassava tubers.

Secondly, cassava grating. Using Doing Company's stainless steel grating cassava to coarsely crush the peeled cassava tubers. After grating, this machine can automatic separate the solid and liquid, and coarse crushing can ensure the cassava flour will not be lost from bags in the press dewatering section.

Thirdly, press dewatering. After grating, put the wet cassava flour into bags and then put them in the hydraulic press machine's body. Then Doing Company's hydraulic press will automatically press bags and remove water in bags. After press dewatering, the moisture of the wet cassava flour is about 35%-40% which can be sent into drying section directly.

Forth, drying. Doing Company manufactured flash dryer is professionally used for cassava flour and cassave starch drying. Cassava flour enters into the flash dryer through a screw conveyor, where it is fast dried by high-speed hot air. The drying can be completed within 2 seconds, ensuring cassava flour not be polluted. After drying, the cassava flour has a moisture content about 12%-14%, meeting the market standard requests. If you have special requests, we can also adjust the parameters to meet your demand.

Fifth, fine crushing. After drying, convey the rough cassava flour to the fine crusher for further crushing to get better fineness.

Finally, sieving and packing. To get higher quality cassava flour, it is better to use a vibration sieve to sieve cassava flour. After sieving, we can get high-quality uniform fineness cassava flour. And finally, pack the sieved cassava flour into bags for storage and sale.

This is the small scale cassava flour processing plant designed by Doing Company. It adopts the mature and successful design, makes sure the produced edible cassava flour is high quality, good fineness, and can be widely used for various of food making. This complete set small scale cassava flour processing plant is very popular, many of our customers have use this set of machines to start their cassava flour processing business successfully in Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania,etc..
