The invention discloses a method for continuously extracting flaxseed gum and
lignan from flaxseed husks. The method comprises the following steps of 1, crushing flaxseed husks, adding a certain amount of water into the crushed flaxseed husks, stirring with heating until water boiling, and carrying out
solid-liquid separation at a water
boiling point, 2, concentrating a
liquid phase separated by the step 1, adding a certain amount of
alcohol into the concentrated solution, stirring and carrying out
solid-liquid separation, 3,
drying a
solid phase separated by the step 2, crushing to obtain flaxseed gum, and recovering
alcohol for next treatment, 4, adding
alcohol separated by the step 2 into a solid phase separated by the step 1, carrying out
dilution, stirring, and carrying out solid-liquid separation, and 5, transferring the alcohol recovered by the step 3 and a
liquid phase separated by the step 4 into an alcohol rectifying
tower, recycling a distillate of high-concentration alcohol, collecting a rectifying product liquid, adding an inorganic alkali solution into the rectifying product liquid for
alkaline hydrolysis, adjusting a pH value of
alkaline hydrolysis products to 7 by an inorganic acid, and carrying out concentration,
drying and crushing to obtain
lignan extract. The method has a high extract yield, a low production cost and no
pollution on the environment, and realizes high efficiency, continuous extraction, time saving and labor saving.
