Cassava syrup is a syrup made from the cassava tuber.The production process of cassava syrup in cassava syrup procesing plant is known as enzymatic hydrolysis. After enzymatic hydrolysis is complete, a sweet syrup is formed. Cassava syrup is used in large quantities in fruits, liquors, crystallized fruits, bakery products, pharmaceuticals, and brewery products.
How to produce cassava syrup from cassava tubers in cassava syrup procesing plant ?
Cassava syrup procesing plant
The description of cassava syrup production process in cassava syrup procesing plant as below :
1.Cassava starch production in cassava syrup procesing plant
Making the refined cassava cassava starch from cassava tubers .

2.Liquefaction process in cassava syrup procesing plant
A starch slurry is made with 30%-35% dry solids and its pH is adjusted to 6.0 – 6.4. Calcium is added using calcium hydroxide or calcium chloride. Calcium ions stabilize the enzyme. A heat-stable α-amylase is mixed into the slurry, then the slurry is instantaneously heated to 100℃ and held at this
temperature for 10 min before it is cooled to 90℃. This temperature is maintained for 1-3hrs to further hydrolyze the starch.
At the end of this step, the starch has been converted to dextrins with a dextrose equivalent (DE) between 8 and 15 (The physical properties of the syrup vary with the DE and the method of manufacture – DE is the total reducing sugar in the syrup expressed as dextrose on a dry weight basis.
3.Saccharification process in cassava syrup procesing plant
After liquefaction, the pH is reduced to between 4.2-4.5 and the solution is cooled to 600c. A glucomylase is added immediately. The reaction time for saccharification is usually need different hours depending on enzyme dose. Glucoamylase releases single glucose units from the ends of dextrin molecule.

4.Filtration and decolorization process in cassava syrup procesing plant
For producing clear cassava syrup,the cassava syrup will be pass by active carbon to decoloring at the appropriate temperature , finally send to filters to remove activated carbon and send to the next section.
5.Ion exchange process in cassava syrup procesing plant
For producing high quality cassava syrup , the clear cassava syrup will be pass by the Ion exchangers to increase the purity of cassava syrup.
6.Evaporation process in cassava syrup procesing plant
The cassava syrup is totally cleaned through safety filter machine then sent to evaporator for concentrating to reach the required DS as final product.
