About

A cassava native starch manual extraction plant is a small-scale, labor-intensive facility designed for processing cassava tubers into starch without the need for complex machinery. This type of plant typically involves several stages: cleaning and peeling the cassava roots, grating them into a pulp, and then manually extracting the starch by washing the pulp with water. The starch-water mixture is then sieved to remove fibrous material, and the starch slurry is allowed to settle. After decantation, the wet starch is collected and sun-dried or air-dried to produce native cassava starch. These plants are often found in rural areas, providing a cost-effective method for local communities to produce starch for food, industrial, or commercial purposes, relying heavily on manual labor and simple tools.
