Rotary steam distillation equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses rotary steam distillation equipment and belongs to the technical field of steam distillation equipment. The rotary steam distillation equipment is a vertical cylinder body, wherein the center of the shell is provided with a vertical rotary plunger; the rotary plunger is provided with a plurality of layers of funnel-form conical shells; and funnel-form conical shells connected with the shell are inserted between the funnel-form conical shells. The number of the layers of the funnel-form conical shells is 7 to 35. The rotating speed of a motor is 0 to 10,000 r / min. The included angle between the funnel-form conical shells and the rotary plunger is 30 to 75 degrees. The plurality of funnel-form conical shells are parallel. The funnel-form conical shells connected with the rotary plunger are parallel to the funnel-form conical shells connected with the shell. The rotary steam distillation equipment has the advantages that: the continuous feed of raw materials is realized, so the production efficiency is improved; the efficiency is high; the natural flavor of the materials is retained, so high-quality of fragrance is obtained; the loss of the components of the fragrance is less; and the selection range of the fragrant materials is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steam distillation equipment, in particular to a rotary steam distillation equipment for extracting volatile and semi-volatile aroma components in natural plants. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, more and more people extract volatile and semi-volatile aroma components from natural plants and Chinese herbal medicines, but the equipment used is conventional steam distillation equipment and conventional methods. That is: mix the materials and water into the distillation equipment, heat the water to boil, and the water vapor will take out the volatile and semi-volatile aroma components in these materials, and then condense and cool to obtain the recovered aroma. The above-mentioned equipment and method have the following problems: the materials cannot be continuously supplied, and the next batch can only be produced after one batch is completed, and the production efficiency is not high; the ex...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The above-mentioned equipment and method have the following problems: the materials cannot be continuously supplied, and the next batch can only be produced after one batch is completed, and the production efficiency is not high; the extraction efficiency is low, and the volatile and semi-volatile fragrances are brought out by the vaporization of water itself It takes at least 1 hour or more to achieve a suitable yield, and the production time is longer; in the process of solvent reflux, the heating time is longer, and the extract is in a high temperature state for a long time, and the active ingredients are prone to cracking or side reactions, resulting in the structure being destroyed. Destruction; low boiling point or medium boiling point aroma components are easy to lose, and it is difficult to obtain extracts that reflect the fragrance of natural plants
