Abstract
AbstractThe manufacture of cassava starch in medium — scale factories requires large volumes of water and produces equivalent volumes of effluent. The use of hydrocyclones to concentrate starch milk and thereby reduce water consumption in the extraction of cassava starch was investigated. Basic performance data with selected hydrocyclone configurations were obtained in the laboratory and the results showed conclusively that high and efficient levels of starch separation are possible with considerable potential for water conservation and effluent reduction in starch factories.
