Cassava preparation

Among our areas of expertise, cassava preparation is one of numerous transformation solutions from bio products offered by INTERIS. For Cassava’s transformation process, tubers preparation is a gentle treatment of roots, ensuring the integrity of tubers to protect the starch. This process uses a very low quantity of water to respect the environmental constraints and reduce the effluent water.

Chips preparation is a wet process to prepare a slurry of rasped chips without sand and without losing the starch of the fines particles.

• Capacity from 200 t/d of cassava chips or 80 m³ of alcohol per day
• Wet process
• Stainless steel equipment

• No liquid effluent
• Fibres treatment : no plate exchangers and distillation column trays clogging
• Adaptation to different qualities of chips, operating with chips at low cost with fines particles possible
• A guaranteed sand elimination
• No dust production, no risk of explosion
• Wet rasping of chips : no thermic alteration of the starch
• Same raps can be used for cassava tuber as an alternative raw material
