How It Works

The Cassava Processing Workflow — Step by Step

From freshly harvested tuber to packaged garri, cassava flour or native starch — a fully integrated 6-stage process designed for high yield, hygiene and HCN safety.

💧

Washing & Cleaning

Freshly harvested tubers fed through paddle washers and rotary cleaners to remove sand, soil and debris

🔪

Peeling

Mechanical or semi-automatic peelers remove the outer brown skin and cyanogenic-rich cortex layer

⚙️

Grating & Mashing

High-speed graters reduce tuber to fine mash — optimised RPM for cassava fibre, releasing starch granules

⚗️

Pressing & Dewatering

Hydraulic or screw presses extract liquid (for starch separation) and reduce moisture before frying / drying

🔀

Sifting / Starch Separation

Vibratory sifters grade garri/flour particles; centrifugal hydro-cyclones separate starch milk from fibre

🔥

Frying / Drying & Bagging

Garri fryers, flash dryers or rotary dryers finish the product — automated bagging in 1–50 kg packs

Technical Overview

Plant Specifications & Engineering Details

What's Included in a Vezora Cassava Plant

Our turnkey package covers the complete line — from tuber intake to packaged finished product. The same platform can be configured for garri, High-Quality Cassava Flour (HQCF) or native starch by switching the back-end drying and finishing modules.

All wetted parts are food-grade SS304 stainless steel. Equipment is pre-assembled and water-tested at our partner facility in India before container shipment to Africa, where our engineers handle installation, commissioning and operator training.

Key Features & Benefits

Why Our Cassava Plants Lead the African Market

🌍

Designed for African Tubers

Cassava varieties grown in Nigeria, DRC, Ghana and Tanzania differ in fibre, starch and HCN content. Our graters, peelers and presses are engineered around these realities — not adapted from European potato or sago equipment.

🔄

Multi-Product Flexibility

One plant, three product lines — garri, HQCF and native starch — with shared front-end (washing, peeling, grating). Switch finished products as market demand shifts, protecting your investment from single-product risk.

🛡️

HCN Safety Built-In

Sweet and bitter cassava varieties contain natural cyanogenic glucosides. Our peeling, pressing and fermentation/heat-treatment sequences are designed to bring HCN below 10 ppm — well within Codex Alimentarius safe limits.

Off-Grid Capable

Plants up to 20 TPD can run on diesel generator or solar-hybrid power, with biomass-fired garri fryers using cassava peel as fuel. Ideal for farmer cooperatives in regions without reliable grid electricity.

🥖

HQCF for Bakery Substitution

Our flash-drying process produces High-Quality Cassava Flour (HQCF) suitable for 10–30% wheat substitution in bread, biscuits, noodles & instant foods — opening institutional buyers like bakery brands and food processors.

🔧

Simple Maintenance & Local Spares

Wear parts (grater discs, press cloths, sifter screens) are standardised and stocked locally through Vezora's Spare Parts vertical. AMC contracts ensure planned maintenance — minimising downtime in fresh-tuber operations.
