Les fécules peuvent être récupérées par un séparateur de fécules, placé directement à la sortie des éplucheuses de pommes de terre. Un système de pulvérisation d’eau rabat les mousses produites par l'éplucheuse, entraînant une inévitable consommation d’eau. C'est de loin la meilleure solution car, compte tenu de la propension de cette substance à colmater les canalisations, l'intérêt de la récupérer à la source est réel. 4, record 4, French, - s%C3%A9parateur%20de%20f%C3%A9cules
