Pre-Gelatinized Starch Production Line (Steam Drum Drying)
Pre-gelatinized starch is also called a-starch, the main function is Cold Water Swelling. Pre-gel starch is widely used in medicine, food, cosmetics, animal feed, oil drilling, metal casting, textile, paper and many other industries. As per market requirement, use different kind of raw materials including corn/waxy corn starch, cassava starch, potato starch etc., and choose different type of drum dryers including double drum dryer and single drum dryer. Gelatinization degree is higher than 98%.

Difference Between Single Drum Dryer And Double Drum Dryer
Items | Single drum 1530 (1500mmX3000mm) | Double drum 1030(1000mmx3000mm) |
Suitable raw material | Low viscosity, corn/wheat starch High viscosity, tapioca starch, potato starch | High viscosity, tapioca starch, potato starch etc. |
Construction | 1 big drum+4 small rollers, material is squeeze many times | 2 big drums, material is squeezed 1 time. |
Product viscosity (dealing tapioca/potato starch ) | Starch chain is broken more by 4 rollers, viscosity lower in product | 1 time squeeze by 2 big drums, starch chain broken less, viscosity keep higher in product |
