From Yangzhou to the World: Myande Strengthens Global Leadership in Starch Processing Equipment

At the intelligent manufacturing base of Myande Group Co., Ltd. in Yangzhou, China, rows of MLXD38 centrifugal separator are undergoing final inspection before shipment.

Each of these high-precision machines is capable of processing 250 m³ of starch slurry per hour and will soon be delivered to a newly built starch factory in the Middle East, where they will serve as core equipment in the plant’s production line.

From its base in eastern China, Myande has expanded into a global technology provider for starch processing, supporting projects across the Middle East, South America, Southeast Asia, and Africa. Today, Myande systems process vast volumes of corn, wheat, and tuber crops every day, contributing to food, pharmaceutical, and industrial supply chains worldwide.

Engineering Innovation Built on a Closed-Loop Process

As a foundational sector serving industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals, starch processing demands high levels of efficiency, purity, and resource optimization.

In this field, technological innovation in processing equipment is critical to improving plant performance and reducing operating costs. Myande’s core advantage lies in its proprietary “steep, mill, separate” wet milling process, a closed-loop production system designed to optimize both yield and sustainability.

Unlike traditional starch processing plants that rely heavily on fresh water input, Myande’s system introduces process water recycling throughout the production line, requiring fresh water only in the final starch milk washing stage.

This significantly reduces freshwater consumption while minimizing wastewater discharge, helping starch producers meet increasingly strict environmental standards.

High-Performance Equipment Driving Process Efficiency

The effectiveness of Myande’s starch processing solutions is supported by a series of high-performance equipment working in coordination.

At the preparation stage, the MZM series pin mill uses impact grinding technology to efficiently break down corn kernels.

The MZM1200 model, for example, can process 18–25 tons of corn per hour, achieving optimal particle size while maintaining a starch-bound content of less than 15%.

Downstream, the MLXD series disc centrifuge performs high-speed separation of starch slurry, reaching capacities of up to 250 m³/h. Integrated sensors continuously monitor operational conditions, ensuring stable and precise performance in large-scale production environments.

To address varying raw material characteristics across global markets, Myande has also developed specialized solutions.

For wheat starch processing, the company introduced a three-phase horizontal screw decanter centrifuge capable of separating flour-water mixtures into three streams simultaneously:

• A-starch and fiber

• Protein and B-starch

• Pentosan

This configuration significantly improves both extraction efficiency and product purity, making it highly suitable for modern wheat processing plants.

Expanding Global Presence in the Starch Industry

With more than two decades of engineering expertise, Myande continues to strengthen its role as a technology leader in the global starch equipment sector.

From Yangzhou to production facilities across the Middle East and South America, Myande equipment supports the transformation of agricultural crops into high-value starch products that serve industries around the world.

As global demand for starch-based materials grows across food processing, pharmaceuticals, and bio-based chemicals, Myande’s integrated technologies are helping manufacturers improve efficiency, reduce resource consumption, and build more sustainable starch processing operations.
