Extraction Vessel

GENERAL

This extraction vessel is mainly used to boil water/solvent and extract essential oil from lemongrass or others or extract active compound from raw material such as Tongkat Ali or others.


WORKING PRINCIPLE

The grinded raw material is immersed in solution (water/solvent) and further the liquid is boiling by using thermal oil, steam or electrical heater which is located around the extraction tank jacket and insulated properly to avoid heat loss to the atmosphere.

The boiling liquid will dissolve the raw material compound in the solution is further concentrated in the concentrator system to obtain concentrated extract which is high in TDS value or the essential oil is carried out with vaporised liquid further separated by using separation system to separate essential oil from the water/solvent.


FEATURES

  1. This equipment mainly is consist of extracting tank, external circulatingt concentrator and other accessory. It is with compact structure, simple operation and combining extraction, concentration, solvent recycling together.
  2. The whole process is in a airtight condition and finish extraction and concentration at one time completely. It can process big quantity material and with less solvent, short extracting time.
  3. The temperature can be controlled freely in 48-100C, so it can realize low temperature extraction, hot backflow, low temperature backflow and low temperature concentration. It is especially suitable for some heat-sensitivity material and can configure with the PLC control system.
