The raw material that enters the milling process is whole grain corn, and the impurities adhering to the surface of the corn will also be mixed into the flour. This process is called corn surface cleaning.
Surface cleaning can be done by hitting, rubbing or washing. The method of washing with high water is called wet surface cleaning, and the method of combating friction is called dry surface cleaning. Since wet surface cleaning requires a lot of clean water, and the washed sewage will pollute the environment. At present, flour mills generally use dry cleaning.
