Engineering Construction and Economic Benefit Analysis of Professional Potato Starch Processing Plant

With the industrialization of potato (sweet potato, potato, pueraria, canna edulis, peas, corn, wheat, etc.) and the rapid development of starch deep processing industry, a number of large and medium-sized sweet potato starch specialty processing plants have been gradually built. The processing of starch bases and large and medium-sized mechanized starch processing plants, which mainly produce coarse starch, are more common in China's agricultural starch processing provinces. A large-scale potato starch industrialized operation mode has been formed. For example, the potato starch produced in Zhangzhou, Fengqiu, Sheqi, Fangcheng and other places in Henan Province is pure, white and free of impurities. Moreover, the processed noodles and powdered skin not only have superior quality, high price and high profit, but also sell well throughout the country, and have achieved obvious social and economic benefits.

Regarding the investment in the construction of a professional starch processing plant, what are the specific implementation operations and preliminary preparations? And what kind of economic benefits can be achieved? In addition to starch processing equipment, what else do you need to know? The following is a summary of the Goodway potato industry professional, I hope to help everyone!

1. Selection of site (Selecting the factory address generally has 5 specific requirements)

① Choose close to raw material production, product sales market and farmers market.
②Choose convenient transportation, close to the potato production base. Fresh potato raw materials are planted close to the road for transportation.
③Choose close to good water quality (soft water, no pollution, no source of disease, meet the water quality standards), water volume, preferably deep well water or river water. It is easy to drain and there is no pollution around.
④ Choose to be close to the power supply, and the water and electricity facilities are complete. There is sufficient power supply and reliability of power supply.
⑤ Requirements for construction conditions, topography and land area of the plant: The terrain, size and slope of the plant should be conducive to transportation, water supply, drainage, and adapt to the process characteristics of the processing operation.



2. Selection of equipment and production process (specific adjustment according to the investor's personal capital situation and investment capacity)

According to the user's investment capacity and the quality requirements of starch, choose the cassava starch processing machinery suitable for processing needs.

Small farmers, family workshop processing types
This type of feature is characterized by small investment and mainly manual operations. It is supplemented by simple machinery. The investment amount is between 10,000 and 30,000.
Starch production capacity ranges from 0.3 to 1 t. Most use simple single machine equipment, with manual operation, or a simple potato starch production line (no purification, no drying, drying equipment). These plants generally build their own sedimentation tanks, use the “acid slurry method” production process, sieving filtration dehydration and natural drying. This saves a lot of investment in mechanical purification filtration, mechanical dewatering, mechanical drying and the like.

Small businesses
The small and medium-sized starch processing enterprises replaced the labor with mechanized processing, and the production efficiency was greatly improved. However, depending on the degree of mechanization, the scale of production varies greatly. The starch processing enterprise with a primary investment scale has an investment amount of about 150,000 to 200,000 yuan. The plant area is not large, about 100㎡, and there are cleaning equipment, powder machine and other equipment. These equipments can be directly processed into starch, which can pulverize 5-10 tons of fresh potatoes per hour and 10-20 tons of starch per day. The crude potato starch can also be purchased from the farmer and processed into refined starch.

Medium starch processing enterprises
A medium-investment-scale starch processing enterprise is expected to invest between 50 and 1 million. These enterprises implement full mechanized process production operations with fine craftsmanship and fine division of labor. The main equipment includes: multi-stage cleaning (dry cleaning machine, oblique squirrel cage cleaning machine, conveyor, washing machine), crushing equipment, filtration and purification equipment (fine filter, microfiltration machine, sand removal and desilting device), starch refining (starch cyclone station), vacuum dewatering machine, dryer, packaging machine, etc. The starch extraction rate, separation rate and starch purity of the complete equipment are all high. The quality of the starch is good, but the power consumption is high and the equipment configuration is relatively low.
The medium-investment-scale starch processing enterprise processes fresh potatoes about 10-15 tons per hour and 20-30 tons of starch per day. It focuses on the use of cost-effective starch equipment.

The main equipment includes: multi-stage cleaning, crushing, filtration, purification, starch refining, dehydration, drying and packaging.
Multi-level cleaning equipment:
Crushing (quartz extrusion type potato powder production, with power 26--60kw)
Filtration (fine filter, with power 1.5--3kw; hexagonal microfiltration machine, with power 0.7--1.5kw)
Purification (de-silder, with power 4--7.5kw; desilter, with power 5.5--11kw)
Starch refining (swirl station, with power 4-45kw)
Dehydration (vacuum dewatering machine, with power 1.5--7.5kw)
Dry (airflow dryer, with power 13--55kw)

large starch processing enterprises (it is well funded and requires high quality starch)
The investment scale of large-scale starch processing enterprises is generally between 1 million and 3 million yuan, and the starch production is above 20t/d. Some large enterprises can even reach 100t/d. It uses fully automated production methods and advanced processing equipment. It has a fully mechanical closed starch and noodle production line, the starch extraction rate is over 95%, and the daily processing of fresh potatoes reaches 200-500t, which has high efficiency of starch extraction and separation rate. Starch purity and whiteness are high, and starch quality is good. The complete set of automatic processing equipment has advanced technology, stable performance and large processing capacity, up to 12-100 tons/day. It saves more than 50% of electricity and is characterized by high productivity, high efficiency and high quality. It is suitable for areas with sufficient electricity, large starch processing and high starch extraction rates.
The main equipment includes: multi-stage cleaning, crushing, filtration, purification, starch refining, dehydration, drying and packaging.
Multi-level cleaning equipment:
Crushing (quartz extrusion type potato powder machine, with power 26--60kw)
Filtration (fine filter, with power 1.5--3kw; hexagonal microfiltration machine, with power 0.7--1.5kw)
