Extraction and concentration equipment is one of the most important devices in the traditional Chinese medicine industry, playing an increasingly important role in the pharmaceutical industry and attracting high attention from people. Reasonable use of extraction and concentration equipment can better exert its effectiveness and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
The extraction and concentration equipment is suitable for various processes in industries such as traditional Chinese medicine, plants, biopharmaceuticals, food, chemical engineering, etc., including atmospheric pressure, micro pressure, water decoction, warm soaking, hot reflux forced circulation, permeation, extraction of aromatic oil components, and recovery of organic solvents. Very suitable for laboratory research and development in universities, research institutes, and enterprises, as well as trial production of small and medium-sized production lines.
There are many advantages to the extraction and concentration equipment, one of which is high efficiency. Based on the original single extraction, the product structure is optimized by integrating small concentration equipment into the equipment, which completes the extraction and concentration in one step, greatly saving raw materials and working time. The working efficiency is increased by 10% to 15% compared to general multi-functional tanks; Secondly, the conversion rate of raw materials is high: during the extraction process, hot solvents are continuously added to the surface of the medicine, and the effective ingredients in the medicine are continuously dissolved through the layer from top to bottom, increasing the effective ingredients in the ointment by more than twice; Thirdly, it has a compact structure and a small footprint, with an actual footprint of around 1.5 square meters.
Experts say that when designing and selecting traditional Chinese medicine extraction and concentration equipment, the first thing to emphasize is the process, and whether new extraction techniques can be used to enhance the extraction and concentration process. In terms of details, as it is a complete set of equipment, it is necessary to consider the working time and cycle of each equipment, and choose the size of the equipment reasonably. Within the same construction period, there should be no interruptions in work caused by equipment matching size issues. In addition, it is important to pay attention to energy conservation. For complete sets of equipment, it is necessary to optimize the process as much as possible, shorten the corresponding pipelines, and reduce energy losses during material transportation. At the same time, attention should also be paid to its operability and the convenience, time-saving, and effortless operation of workers, making it more humane.
There are many types of traditional Chinese medicine extraction and concentration equipment, and due to the different processes adopted by each manufacturer, the combination of extraction and concentration equipment also varies. Equipment selection should be based on mainstream products and production processes, and equipment should be used correctly according to its performance and working principles.
