CIP-Compatible Design Herbal Extraction Reactor
Product Description
Phyto-Chemical Purity: China's Specialized Reactor Systems for Large-Scale Herbal Extraction
The global market for natural and traditional medicine, nutraceuticals, and specialized food ingredients relies on efficient, high-purity extraction of active compounds from botanical sources. Herbal extraction requires dedicated reactor systems capable of handling large volumes of plant material, maintaining precise thermal and pressure conditions, and ensuring final extracts are free from impurities.
Core Engineering for Mass Transfer and Yield Optimization
Controlled Thermal and Pressure Profiles
Extraction efficiency depends on temperature, which increases solubility and mass transfer kinetics. Our reactors feature responsive heating systems with large-surface-area jackets or steam coils and precise PID controllers. For volatile compounds, pressurized extraction safely operates under elevated pressure to raise solvent boiling points, maximizing efficiency and minimizing processing time.
Agitation and Percolation Enhancement
To ensure complete solvent exposure of raw materials, our reactors utilize specialized mixing and fluid dynamics. Low-shear agitation prevents plant material damage while maintaining slurry homogeneity. For percolation, the design ensures uniform solvent flow through packed herb beds, preventing channeling and maximizing contact efficiency.
Solvent Recovery and Recycling
Due to high solvent costs and environmental impact, our extraction reactor systems integrate with distillation or evaporation units for efficient solvent recovery and recycling. This significantly reduces operational costs and enhances production sustainability.
Reactor Design for Purity and Consistency
High-Integrity Material Construction
Internal surfaces are constructed from high-grade 316L stainless steel, chosen for excellent resistance to various solvents and non-reactive properties. This prevents extract contamination and ensures compliance with pharmaceutical and food-grade standards.
Structural Safety under Pressure and Vacuum
Fabricated as heavy-duty pressure vessels, our reactors safely handle continuous stresses from high-temperature, high-pressure extraction and subsequent high-vacuum distillation for concentration. All manufacturing strictly adheres to industrial codes for long-term structural reliability.
CIP Compatibility and Solids Handling
Designed with large-diameter bottom discharge ports and mechanical aids or filters, our reactors efficiently separate liquid extracts from solid botanical residue. Fully integrated with automated Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) systems ensures reliable sanitation between batches.
