Process

Our finished products well bagged with inner lining are stored in the warehouse where there is low humidity to safeguard the hygienic and organoleptic qualities of the product. Dust and other source of contaminants are prevented from coming in contact with the stored goods. They are neatly kept on pallets that are stacked a little distance above the floor. Company trucks or trucks from reputable transport companies are used for delivery of finished products.

Finished starch stored in the silo are packed directly with the aid of the Packaging Machine which is connected to other devices like the Paddle Dryer, Screw Conveyor Two-Way Damper, Air Compressor, Gill, Potable Belt Conveyor. These machines work automatically to feed starch from the silo into the packing bag. Bags are then neatly sewn with the Sewing Machine. The packaging materials are specially made bags with inner lining made of vinyl materials to protect the product against bacteriological and other contamination; it protects the product against infiltration of moisture, insect infestation and leakage. It does not impart any colour or any other extraneous. Product specification like name…

The vacuum filter is connected to the Air Separator which removes air from the sucked water inside the vacuum filter. The vacuum filter thus converts the starch milk into starch cake by dewatering. The moisture content of the starch is checked and controlled at 30mins interval to maintain 35%-45% moisture content to prevent blockage in the drying line. The starch cake from the vacuum filter is conveyed into the Double Mixer where the starch cake is mixed to enhance reduction in size. The conveyor and double mixer are regularly scraped to prevent starch cake accumulation which can cause browning and microbial growth. The starch cake from the double…

The slurry from the Rasper Pit is sent to the Bend Sieves The bend sieves separate the slurry into starch milk and fibre in a serial manner into the Bend Sieve Under Tank. it is fed into the GL Screen The GL screen further removes fibre from the starch milk. The fibre from the GL screen still contains some amount of starch which is recovered by sending it through the Roto-Sieve. Recovered starch is sent to the rasper pit for reprocessing while the fibre is sent away as waste. The starch milk from the GL screen goes into the Storage Tank (C110) from there through the Sand Separator…

In coming cassava is first visually inspected prior to processing and the wooden and bad ones are sorted out before putting them on the Horizontal Belt Conveyor One officer is stationed between the Weighing Conveyor (A102) and Feeding Belt Conveyor) to continue picking other material like wood, glass, stones, iron and foreign bodies that can constitute problems and contaminations to processing line before being conveyed into the Drum Washer In the Drum Washer and Paddle Washer the tubers are thoroughly washed with water to remove sand and brown peels. The cassava proceeds into the Root Chopper where the cassava is chopped to smaller pieces and then into the…
