Cassava Dewatering Machine
Cassava dewatering machine is an dehydrator equipment. Removing moisture contents from cassava pulp, cassava residue or cassava sludge after processing.
The Cassava Dewatering Machine: For Better Processing Efficiency
Cassava, alternately known as manioc or yuca, is a tapered root vegetable. Grown throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world due to its relatively easy propagation through vegetative method. Several important steps in the processing of cassava presser based products such as flour, starch and pellets with dewater part. The cassava dewatering machine is also an indispensable part in the process, and it can improve efficiency and quality.
Benefits and Advantages
Highly Efficient: Removing excess water in an efficient manner, thereby shortening the subsequent drying process and enhancing overall processing speed.
Cassava Product Quality Improvement: Lower moisture content leads to the production of high quality final products such as cassava flour or starch with good texture, flavor and shelf life.
Lower energy costs and operational expenses, as a result of decreased drying time (Cost Savings): making the processing process more cost-efficient.
Activity: Fast water removal helps the environment through energy saving and greenhouse gas minimization connected to slow drying periods.
Why need to dewater cassava?
Cassava roots are washed, peeled and grated into a mass which is then extracted from the starchy pulp. Since this pulp contains a high rate of moisture, so we need to reduce the moisture in order for you obtain better quality cassava flour or starch. Cassava dewatering is the process of separating extra water from the pulp and it generally accomplishes by mechanical method utilizing a dewatering machine.
Functionality and Design
The cassava pulp in most cases are very large-amounts of material, so the output method is generally fryer dewatering machine. They use centrifugal force or mechanical pressure for removing the water from the pulp. The design may vary, but typically a rotating drum or screw conveyor system where pulp is input and pressed/compacted by compressing action that forces water to exit through holes in perforated screens or filters.
Cassava dewatering machine uses
Cassava Flour Production:
Processing cassava flour for baking, foods and etc. at an industrial level.
Starch Extraction:
As thickener produced during food processing, in addition to various industrial applications.
Animal Feed:
Cassava husk in dry state could, therefore be a cost effective feed for livestock to reduce such wastes wnd properly handle the waste products as well prolonging shelf life of cassava and its derivates.
