Starch production information


Starch production is an isolation of starch from plant sources. It takes place in starch plants. Starch industry is a part of food processing which is using starch as a starting material for production of starch derivatives, hydrolysates, dextrins.

At first, the raw material for the preparation of the starch was wheat. Currently main starch sources are:

  • maize (in America, China and Europe) – 70%,
  • potatoes (in Europe) – 12%,
  • wheat - 8% (in Europe and Australia),
  • tapioca - 9% (South East Asia and South America),
  • rice, sorghum and other - 1%.[citation needed]
