Starch Based Industries
@ a glance
- Starch is made from Corn,Potato, Tapioca (Cassava),
wheat & Rice
- Modifeid Starch :Starch which has been treated
physically or chemically to modify one or more of its key
physical or chemical properties.
- Modifications of Starch are carried out to change one
or more of following characteristics.
Pasting Temperature,
Solids viscosity relationship,
Gelatinisation and Cooking characteristics,
Resistance of pastes to breakdown in viscosity by acids,
Heat and\or mechanical shear,
Retrogradation tendencies,
Ionic character,
Hydrophilic character
- Major industries have found some uses for starch.
In food industries, starch is used to impart “functional”
properties to processed foods such as thickening, binding,
filling, and taste. Starch is used in canned soups, instant
desserts, ice creams, processed meats, sauces, and bakery
products.
Starch can also be converted into sugar. It is used to
manufacture sweeteners
and syrups and to feed enzymes for the manufacture of MSG, a
popular taste enhancer.
Uses of starch in non-food industries are many.
Major users include the textile,
paper, plywood, and adhesive industries.
Starch is also used in the manufacture of
pharmaceuticals.
- Starch Demand
The quantity of starch consumed in food and non-food products in
a country is closely associated with the level of economic
development and income of that country. As per capita incomes
rise, consumers demand a more varied set of food and
manufactured products that use starch in their making. Thus,
there is a close and positive relationship between income and
quantity of starch demanded.
- The industrial organization and technology of starch
processing is changing rapidly in Asia. Unlike in
industrialized countries where starch is processed almost
entirely by large scale factories, much of Asia’s starch
processing is done by small and medium-sized firms, or even at
the household level. For both large-scale and small-scale
processors, the cost of raw material is by far the most
significant cost item in starch processing.
