Technology for producing pure turmeric powder

Update: 4/15/2014

Export demand from food hygiene and safety , we have incorporated folk experience with science and technology to offer this technology .
 
No question the cancer support and treatment that is focused assistance to treat gastrointestinal , circulatory sugar , respiratory and anti-inflammatory effects of turmeric powder was separated resin , oil , remove cover , reduce the basic function of bacterial spores and mold , ensuring the safety of users, although support some forms of cancer treatment is also relatively important ability of turmeric Curcuma longa L gold .
 
We do not mix turmeric powder with glucose and other sugar because it can increase blood sugar levels and is not mixed with any other food additive , so that the product is 100 % from turmeric , also do not use chemicals other than water vapor .
 
A better way is to use turmeric remove harmful impurities out of the turmeric health and try not to bacteria , mold , dust and other impurities outside and into the powder , minimize response harm occurred in processing before use .
 
Turmeric ( Curcuma Longa L. ) contain two types of antioxidants is curcumin and tumeron . Curcumin is part of a solid , is actually the curcuminoid including curcumin , curcumin and bis - demethoxy demethoxy curcumin . In the three compounds curcumin is more interesting and with the same good technology , it accounts for over 50 % of the curcuminoid . We chose the same gold appropriate technology that people would call tech red , dark reddish brown roots all the way from the inside out . The same technology has lemon yellow or red core removed .
 
The tubers are too small , immature to be removed along with the tubers have a thick skin . The tubers are washed and breaking fingers branching into separate clips during the washing machine , then put the cork shellers . The reason for this is to peel parts exposed to chemicals , fertilizer , eggs and most heavy metals ; curcumin content is also very low . These devices are washed and peeled hygiene , not made ​​of normal steel , no rust .
 
Plastic parts disadvantage of turmeric resin acids can be dissolved in water. Need to remove this section because it smells pungent , bitter and cause adverse health effects . We have built and put into use equipment plastic bleach , disinfecting steam from the boiler . During plastic eraser , the roots are strong enough to provide a little motion suspended in boiling water for a long time ( from 3 to 6 hours ) . So most of the water-soluble resin disadvantages are eliminated. This process also eliminates most bacteria , mold in fresh tubers .
Can be used to remove plastic soda faster but we can not use for longer trace chemicals in plastic products after bleaching . On the other hand , Sparkling despite low levels of curcumin and still work with other components in the powder , and to reduce levels of curcumin , has just left the compound can not dissolve in soda water between the components of technology .
 
Machine sliced ​​stainless steel with a capacity of about 200 kg / hour so the whole fresh root ( 1000kg ) sliced ​​in 5 hours. The relatively thick slices evenly sprayed onto the tray made ​​of stainless steel lined with fabric to put on drying equipment drying in solar energy indirectly associated with heat pump . The drying temperature is about 55 ° C , relative humidity of the air at the input device 30% , ensuring fast drying without causing chemical changes due to photochemical reactions and heat up as well as the absorption of curcumin bacteria , excessive mold processing .
 
Due to the drying process at low temperature , short drying time , no direct sunlight and dust tight , the products have high quality colors , flavors and achieving standards of food hygiene and safety .
 
After drying proceed immediately crushed into powder dry slices of raw mill with loss record 1 - 2mm in diameter . Crude Crusher hammer crusher hammer fixed wing axis . The contact details with material are made of stainless steel SUS304 . With capacity 50kg / h and hardness of materials technology is not large, fixed hammer axis format is reasonable because of the friction force increases in raw hammer pieces .
 
In the case of storage products for the technology pieces into polyethylene bags and stored in a covered container , plastic sealed , stored at low temperature , in a cool place clean , the processing will be dried and then put back go grind .
 
Crushed material was put into the distillation device to use superheated dry steam or superheated about 10 - 15oC in comparison with saturated steam . Thereby reducing the phenomenon of curcumin hydrolyzed liquid water and chemical to keep the quality , color and odor quality of turmeric oil has been separated off . Distillation temperature of about 135 - 145oC , water vapor pressure of about 1.5 - 2kg / cm2 . These temperatures do not affect the quality of curcumin , ar - tumeron and starch in turmeric . On the other hand powder size is not changed , there are many voids inside help better absorption of acidic and other substances in the digestive tract .
 
Distillation time ( approximately 6 hours ) and distillation rate is adjusted to the basic dough constituents standing in front of the ar - tumeron remaining quantities of oil and 1.5 % by weight of dry powder after distillation . We have distilled for oil remaining portion of dough is 2 % and tumeron levels around 55-65 % . Thus tumeron wage levels by weight dry powder after distillation at about 1 % .
 
Turmeric powder is then sent back to the drying equipment to reduce the moisture content down to 7 % by weight and is sent to the finely ground ( stainless steel ) and clinical ( stainless steel 150 mesh pore size ) before packaging .
 
After distillation of turmeric powder with no apparent change in color ( just a little bit darker , probably by reducing the amount of oil ) .
