Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting and separating curcumin and curcuma oil from carcuma longa, which comprises the following steps of: grinding the carcuma longa into carcuma longa powder with particle size of 80-100 meshes; taking ethanol water solution as extractant for dynamic countercurrent extraction of the carcuma longa powder to obtain extraction solution, and concentrating to obtain concentrated solution; and adding the concentrated solution with plant oil extraction solvent for liquid-liquid extraction to obtain light phase containing curcuma oil and heavy phase containing curcumin. Compared with the prior art, the invention takes the ethanol water solution as the extractant and extracts the curcumin and the curcuma oil from the carcuma longa by employing the dynamic countercurrent extraction method, and the method has the advantages of simple operation, moderate extraction condition, low usage amount of solvent, short extraction time, few impurities in extraction solution and high extraction efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of extraction, in particular to a method for extracting and separating curcumin and turmeric oil from turmeric. Background technique [0002] Turmeric is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Curcuma longa of the Zingiberaceae family. It is produced in Taiwan, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, and Sichuan provinces in my country. It can be traditionally used as medicine, food spices, seasonings, and pigments. The main components of turmeric are curcumin derivatives, turmeric oil and starch, etc., wherein the curcumin derivatives include curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin. [0003] Domestically, curcumin derivatives are mainly extracted from turmeric as food pigments or turmeric oil is extracted from turmeric as natural spices, and the extracted turmeric residue is discarded as waste. Commonly used extraction processes mainly include ethanol reflux extraction, supercritical carbon dioxi...
