Starch Glucose Plant
Starch is a polymer of glucose found in
most plants. Starch is organised in 1-140 ìm
granules in plants. Starch is produced from
various raw materials like maize,
cassava/tapioca roots, potatoes, wheat, rice
etc. The technology or the manufacturing
process of starch differs according to the raw
material used. One of the highlighted aspect
of starch processing / extraction is that starch
is produced according to the requirement of
the end users depending upon changing
reaction condition (Temp, pH2 additives) and
strict process control methods. Customized
or specially developed starch is popularly
known as Modified starch. This is superior
quality starch applicable for varied industrial
usages.
To facilitate these aspects of starch
extraction or processing, we design &
develop starch processing equipment &
starch processing plants that meet varied
requirements in starch & it's derivative
manufacturing units. Our advance fabrication
facilities, team of industry professionals &
technical know how enable us to meet client's
specific requirement by developing custom
design machinery. we also excel in
establishing of complete plants for starch
extraction & execute turnkey projects.
Starch Manufacturing Process:
Starch manufacturing process can be
schematically represent as follows:
Usage of Starch
As a pure & renewable natural polymer
starch caters to multiple usage. Its
significance as a polysacloride (being able to
breakdown into their monomeric and or
oligomeric components) leads to production
of Dextrose, glucose, fructose, maltose &
sorbitol. Furthermore, starch is also an

Some of most common industrial uses of starch is as follows:- Ceramics Starch is also used to make some packing peanuts, and some dropped ceiling tiles. Textile chemicals To reduce breaking of yarns during weaving, the warp yarns are sized. Starch is one of the main agents used for cotton sizing. Starch is also used as printing thickener. Printing industry In the printing industry food grade starch is used in the manufacture of anti-set-off spray powder used to separate printed sheets of paper to avoid wet ink being set off. Bioplastics Starch is used to produce various bioplastics, synthetic polymers that are biodegradable. An example is polylactic acid. Body powder Powdered corn starch is used as a substitute for talcum powder in many health and beauty products. Oil exploration Starch is used to adjust the viscosity of drilling fluid which is used to lubricate the drill head in (mineral) oil extraction. Bio-ethanol Glucose from starch can be further fermented to ethanol. Hydrogen production - Starch can be used to produce hydrogen, using enzymes.
