Flo-Mech FLO-STARCH® Starch & Water Recovery System

FLO-STARCH® Starch & Water Recovery System for the recovery of native potato starch from processing water

FLO-STARCH® Starch and Water Recovery System separates starch from process water and deposits the starch in large bags for re-sale or re-use.

Basic System Function

  • The system accepts the pumped ‘white process water’ from the potato slice washing system – and separates the starch from the water – via a centrifuge/decanter.
  • The starch powder is deposited into large bags – for re-sale or re-use in other processes.
  • The recycled water is pumped back to be used in other areas of the process (washing, peeling etc.).
