The invention belongs to the field of natural
organic chemistry, and relates to a method for purifying capsicine in hot pepper by using
microwave countercurrent extraction-membrane
filtration technologies in a combined way. The method is characterized in that:
microwave countercurrent extraction and membrane
filtration are performed in sequence, so that the extraction time is shortened, the extraction speed is increased, the extraction rate is increased by dozens of times, and the extraction period is shortened greatly. Meanwhile, the content of active ingredients is increased, medicinal materials and
energy consumption are saved, and the defects of relatively low conventional extraction rate and low extraction purity are overcome. Furthermore, the content of active ingredients is increased, the extraction purity is high, and a final capsicine product of which the content is over 98 percent can be obtained. Due to the adoption of the method for using
microwave countercurrent extraction-membrane
filtration technologies in a combined way, an
organic solvent is extracted completely, the membrane filtration technology is safe and reliable, the
microwave technology has a high extraction speed,
pollution is avoided, environment-friendly
engineering is adopted, a
production line has a simple constitution, a
processing process is simple and contributes to saving medicinal materials and lowering
energy consumption, and the defects of relatively low conventional extraction rate and low extraction purity are overcome.
