600,000 T/A Wheat Starch Deep Processing Project Successfully Launched
Recently, the 1st phase of Henan Hanyong's 600,000 tons (annual output) wheat starch deep processing project, designed by and installed under the guidance of Myande, has been smoothly commissioned, and contract for the 2nd phase was signed with Myande, marking the further extension of the domestic wheat deep processing industry chain. Henan Hanyong Biotechnology Co., Ltd. is one of the leading enterprises in agricultural industrialization of Henan province. It mainly produces edible alcohol with strong competitiveness and a high reputation in the market. Starch deep processing is one of Myande’s important business segments. After years of technology and experience accumulation in the field of starch deep processing, Myande has formed a complete set of production design system with a high degree of automation, stable operation and high product quality. In recent years, Myande has successfully established long-term strategic cooperative relations with multiple famous domestic and international enterprises. Combining with Hanyong's own industrial advantages, after in-depth research, efficient communication and repeated demonstrations, Myande has designed a set of production plan (as shown in the following figure) specially for the customer, and it can not only produce gluten and wheat starch, but also make better use of the mixed nutrient solution of process water and pentosan to produce alcohol, which will bring considerable economic benefits. The 1st phase project is a 500tpd wheat flour processing project, including a 3tpd gluten drying system and a 12tpd starch drying system. From beginning to end, the whole project lasted for 10 months. During the whole implementation process, from the plant layout planning, process design, intelligent automation design in the early stage, project service in the mid-term, to the installation, commissioning and training in the post stage, Myande’s rigorous, attentive and efficient one-stop service has won the unanimous praise of Hanyong. Through the joint efforts of Myande and Hanyong employees, a brand-new starch deep processing production line was successfully commissioned and started running smoothly, and all indicators were superior to the technical level of the same industry. In view of the pleasant cooperation in the 1st phase, Hanyong decided to cooperate with Myande again to expand its wheat starch deep processing output, and signed the 2nd phase project with Myande resolutely, namely 5t/d gluten drying system and 20t/h starch drying system. After which, Hanyong will become a high-quality gluten high-value conversion base with "the largest scale, the best environment protection and the highest level of research and development" in the industry in Asia.

What is the most important factor when evaluating a sweet potato starch project?
Many investors focus first on equipment price, but the real success factor is how much saleable starch can be recovered from each ton of sweet potatoes.
The profitability of a sweet potato starch plant depends on:
- starch content of the raw material
- starch recovery efficiency
- starch quality and whiteness
- water and energy consumption
- by-product utilization
Before selecting equipment, it is advisable to evaluate local sweet potato varieties, annual supply volume, and seasonal fluctuations. A plant designed around real raw material conditions will perform much better than one designed around theoretical values.
Why do starch yields vary significantly between different sweet potato starch plants?
Yield differences are usually caused by:
- raw material quality variation
- inefficient rasping
- starch losses in pulp
- insufficient washing
- poor process control
In practice, many plants lose profitability not because of low market prices, but because starch recovery is lower than expected.
When comparing suppliers, ask how they minimize starch losses throughout the entire process rather than simply asking about installed capacity.
How can I determine whether my local sweet potato variety is suitable for industrial starch production?
Not all sweet potatoes are equally suitable for starch production.
Key evaluation criteria include:
- starch content
- fiber content
- moisture content
- seasonal consistency
- storage stability
A feasibility assessment should be conducted before finalizing plant capacity and process design.
One of the most common investment mistakes is designing a large plant without verifying long-term raw material availability and quality.
What are the biggest hidden losses in sweet potato starch production?
The most common hidden losses occur when starch remains trapped in:
- sweet potato pulp
- washing streams
- process wastewater
These losses are often difficult to detect during daily operation but can significantly reduce annual profitability.
A well-designed extraction and washing system is essential to maximize starch recovery and minimize losses.
How can a sweet potato starch plant reduce water consumption and wastewater treatment costs?
Water is one of the largest operating expenses in wet starch processing.
Modern plants reduce water usage through:
- multi-stage washing optimization
- process water recycling
- closed-loop water systems
- efficient separation technology
Reducing freshwater consumption not only lowers operating costs but also reduces environmental compliance risks.
For many projects, water management has a greater long-term impact on profitability than minor differences in equipment pricing.
What should I pay attention to when selecting a sweet potato starch equipment supplier?
Many suppliers can provide machines.
Fewer suppliers can provide a complete process solution.
When evaluating suppliers, focus on:
- successful industrial references
- starch recovery performance
- automation capability
- energy and water optimization
- commissioning experience
- after-sales support
A supplier's ability to deliver stable production after startup is often more important than the equipment itself.
Why choose a turnkey sweet potato starch solution instead of purchasing individual machines?
Because starch production is a complete process system rather than a collection of equipment.
Problems in one section often affect the entire plant.
A turnkey solution helps ensure:
- process compatibility
- optimized starch recovery
- stable product quality
- faster startup
- lower project risk
For investors, turnkey delivery often reduces both technical and commercial uncertainty.
What determines the long-term competitiveness of a sweet potato starch plant?
Long-term competitiveness depends on four factors:
1. Raw material security
2. Starch recovery efficiency
3. Water and energy consumption
4. Product quality consistency
A plant that consistently achieves high recovery, stable quality, and efficient operation will generally outperform a plant that focuses only on minimizing initial investment.
