Newly Designed Hydrocyclone for Starch
Starch is storage polysaccharide that is stored in cells as starch grains during plant growth. It is widely used in food and non-food industry. During the process of starch production, hydrocyclone for starch plays an very important role, which will affect starch extraction rate and quality.
Hydrocyclone for starch has function of
extraction, collection, purification and separation of starch. When cassava
slurry goes into the hydrocyclone, starch and other impurities will be
separated and flows into different outlet-overflow outlet and bottom outlet.
The theory is that starch and impurities have different density, which makes
them swirl in different radius. Starch that have large density will cause the
external swirl and come out from bottom outlet. On the contrary, impurities (
e.g. protein) will flow into the overflow outlet.
