The Incalfer Potato Starch Extraction System is designed to operate efficiently in a 700 kg/h potato chips processing plant. This advanced system enables the separation of suspended potato particles and dissolved starch from recirculated water with 90% efficiency, ensuring a closed-loop operation that significantly reduces the need for fresh water replenishment in the washing process.
Key Features:
- Efficient Starch Separation: Removes starch and potato residues from the recirculated water, producing a starch paste with 40% moisture content.
- Automated Cleaning System: A high-pressure pump periodically cleans the drum mesh, ensuring continuous operation and minimal manual intervention.
- Advanced Control System: Operated via a programmable logic controller (PLC) with a touchscreen interface for user-friendly monitoring and control.
- Integrated Safety Features: Equipped with level and safety sensors to protect and regulate the operation of water and vacuum pumps.
- Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Built with AISI 304 stainless steel, ensuring high resistance to corrosion and meeting food industry standards. (Recirculation pumps and mechanical components are exceptions.)
Applications:
- Potato chips and snack food processing plants
- Starch recovery systems in food production
- Water recirculation and conservation systems in food processing
