Abstract

The processing of potatoes in significant quantities is becoming limited to the production of potato starch and derivatives. There are other potato processing industries such as potato alcohol, potato granules, potato chips and sticks. The potato granule plant uses a standard production method as used in U. S. A. with certain modifications—though. The author could describe this process in detail and discuss the various steps in this process from storing to packing operation but various circumstances prohibit this description. The volume of this product is, however, not significant. The same applies to chips and sticks. The cold Danish climate and the types of potato varieties grown make processing into these products difficult from a chemical point of view. The sugar-starch ratio is not advantageous. A great deal of work is constantly being done to find new outlets for potatoes through refined products.
