Cassava: a promising food security crop in Mutomo, a semi-arid food deficit district in Kitui County of Kenya
Cassava is ideal for production and provision of carbohydrates in the marginal and drought-prone areas, which comprise about 80% of Kenya. However, its potential utilisation as a food security crop remains low in these areas. A major constraint to cassava production is lack of adequate disease and pest-free planting materials greatly exacerbated by its low multiplication rate. The Kenya ...

Enhanced thermophilic fermentative hydrogen production from cassava stillage by chemical pretreatments
Acid and alkaline pretreatments for enhanced hydrogen production from cassava stillage were investigated in the present study. The result showed that acid pretreatment was suitable for enhancement of soluble carbohydrate while alkaline pretreatment stimulated more soluble total organic carbon production from cassava stillage. Acid pretreatment thereby has higher capacity to promote hydrogen ...

Hazard and Critical Control Points of Ready-to-Eat foods and an abattoir examination in a typical tropical market
Ready-to-Eat (RTE, street) foods sold at Bodija market, Ibadan, Nigeria were examined. Methods used for the preparation of RTE foods were followed in establishing relevant Critical Control Points (CCPs). Hazard analyses were carried out on all foods examined from the raw material up to the finished product levels. Two cereal-based products (kokoro and kunu tsamiya) had high microbial counts (>104 ...

Recovery method of cassava residue-fermentation to produce organic fertilizer
Cassava residue is the by-product of cassava starch extraction or alcohol processing, mainly including crude fiber, crude ash and moisture. Indonesia, Cambodia, Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries produce a large number of cassava slag powder and cassava slag particles. As cassava residue is non-toxic, it is often used as a cheap source of coarse feed by the farms. Cassava residue can ...

New Technology of Cassava Flour Equipment and Cassava Flour Production Process
Tapioca flour is also called cassava powder, which is in the form of powder. Unlike tapioca starch, it is the processing of all cassava roots, retaining the nutrient content of cassava, and the nutrition is more comprehensive than tapioca starch. Tapioca flour is mainly consumed. The cassava flour equipment developed by GOODWAY Tapioca Industry is widely used in the international market. Crafting ...

Benefit from cassava plants - Hofstetter builds a CDM plant in Indonesia
Hindelbank - Indonesia ranks as the fourth largest cassava producer in the world. Because of its starchy tubers, cultivation of the cassava plant is an essential part of agriculture in Indonesia. In the Lampung region on the island of Sumatra, the Sahabat Group is expanding the existing production of cassava starch. During the process of extracting the starch, waste water is produced which flows ...

Application of Starch Drying Machinery in Potato and Arrowroot Processing
The starch material that has been dehydrated usually still contains a large amount of water. According to the nature of the starch material, the water content is generally between 35% and 45%. Dehydrated materials cannot be stored or transported for long periods of time. Drying is also a powdery shape, which has the characteristics of long drying time and not easy drying. In these cases, it is ...
