A process (1) for the extraction and isolation of starches and derivatives thereof from legumes, comprising a first step (2) of physical separation of a fraction (A) with high content of proteins and fibers and a fraction (B) with high content of starches on a product constituted by ground legumes. The process (1) comprises a second step (3) of mixing of the fraction (B) with high content of starches with water, a third step (4) of filtration by means of apparatuses such as centrifugal screens, centrifugal separators, hydrocyclones and combinations thereof, and a fourth step (5) of drying until a condition of maximum humidity of 20% by weight is reached, obtaining an intermediate product (C) with high content of starches.
