Problems solved by technology

[0006] In summary, the traditional methods for extracting fat-soluble natural pigments mainly have the following shortcomings: 1) The extraction conditions are relatively harsh, and the quality and stability of the products are significantly different from those of natural materials; 2) The extraction rate and selectivity of the products are quite different , and the solvent consumption is large; 3) The solvent is easy to remain in the extract, and if the solvent is impure, it will bring peculiar smell and affect the product quality; 4) The equipment has high pressure resistance requirements or high investment and energy consumption

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a device for extracting a fat-soluble natural pigment. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) performing pretreatment on a material, and then performing pressure reduction treatment on the treated material in an extraction container; (2) introducing a solvent into the extraction container to mix the solvent and the material, and extracting the mixture to obtain extract liquor; (3) putting the extract liquor into a vaporization separation device to separate out a crude extract of the fat-soluble natural pigment, and simultaneously separating the solvent, compressing and cooling the solvent, and then reclaiming the solvent for cyclic utilization; and (4) putting the crude extract of the fat-soluble natural pigment into a refining system to perform refining treatment to prepare a refined extract. The extraction device comprises an extraction separation system, the refining system, a solvent purification system, a vacuum system and a heat exchange system. The method and the device can improve the oxidation resistance and the stability of a product, and ensure the biological and chemical activities of the extracts; the product has pure and stable colors; the extraction rate is high; the solvent residue is low; the product has no peculiar smells; and the solvent is easy to reclaim for cyclic utilization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fine chemicals, and in particular relates to a method and equipment for extracting fat-soluble natural pigments. Background technique [0002] At present, the commonly used methods for preparing natural food coloring include solvent extraction, enzyme reaction, supercritical extraction and microwave extraction. Enzyme reaction conditions are mild, low temperature, and neutral, but the research is not deep enough. The supercritical extraction method has low energy consumption and high product purity, but is limited by the polarity of the solvent and requires a large investment in equipment. Microwave extraction takes a short time to extract, uses less solvent, and is low in cost, but its application range is relatively limited. The traditional solvent extraction method has simple equipment and is widely used, but it has the problems of high energy consumption and poor product quality. [0003] Chinese p...
