Resumen
The present work shows the design of a machine for the optimization of the potato leaching process in the production of potato starch with the objective of reducing the leaching time by entrainment. According to a study carried out by the International Potato Center (CIP), the ordinary leaching process for the production of the best quality potato starch takes approximately 20 days with a constant flow of water. According to INEI, only 13.3% of the country's potato producers produce potato starch because the process of obtaining it takes a long time and depends on weather variations. The design of the machine consists of three stages: mechanical system, pneumatic system and control system; these systems accelerate the leaching process in which the potato goes through three stages of machining that are submerged, strained and squeezed. Likewise, the machine provides a more hygienic process as opposed to conventional potato starch leaching processes. The development of the design features a manual control panel and indicators where temperature, time and process progress can be observed. The machine will work in areas where it does not undergo drastic temperature changes, i.e. closed rooms such as areas intended exclusively for potato leaching. In conclusion, the use of the machine for the optimization of the potato leaching process for the production of potato starch will reduce leaching time and potato hygiene to increase the production and quality of potato starch.
