Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CO2 extraction technology, specifically a supercritical CO2 extraction device. Background Technology

[0002] The principle of supercritical carbon dioxide extraction and separation process is to use supercritical carbon dioxide as a solvent. In the supercritical state, supercritical carbon dioxide is brought into contact with solid substances, and under appropriate pressure and temperature, it selectively extracts components with different polarities, boiling points and molecular weights in sequence.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent application publication CN209662671U discloses a supercritical CO2 extraction device, including a vessel body, a vessel cover, a jacket, a material component, a steam inlet, and a steam outlet. A support ring is installed in the lower part of the material cylinder, and a material rack is placed on the support ring. The material rack includes multiple positioning rods, and multiple perforated plates are installed vertically and vertically between the multiple positioning rods. A wire mesh is installed on the upper surface of each perforated plate, and a material bag is placed on the upper surface of each wire mesh. A cover plate is movably installed on the top of the material cylinder, and multiple air outlets are machined on the cover plate. A packing seal is provided between the top of the material cylinder and the vessel body. A mixed gas outlet is provided on the vessel body above the packing seal. A flange is provided on the top of the vessel body, and the vessel cover is located above the flange. An automatic rotation mechanism is provided on the upper surface of the vessel cover. The flange and the vessel cover are clamped and sealed by a clamping mechanism. This device not only significantly improves the extraction rate and extraction effect, but also greatly reduces the amount of carbon dioxide used. It has the advantages of easy operation, convenient and quick loading and unloading. However, the position of the wire mesh in this device is fixed. When the material and CO2 have almost been extracted, the material needs to be replaced. The above design is not convenient for material replacement and affects the continuous use of the device. Therefore, we propose a supercritical CO2 extraction device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a supercritical CO2 extraction device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0020] 1. This supercritical CO2 extraction device involves placing the solid material to be extracted on a placement plate between vertical plates, then moving a pin to insert it into slots on both sides of the placement plate, thus fixing the placement plate between the vertical plates. The vertical plates are then placed inside the reactor, causing the mounting block at the bottom of the vertical plate to contact the spring rod. Finally, the top cover is pressed down on the connecting plate, causing the spring rod to retract and the vertical plates and connecting plate to descend. Simultaneously, the top cover is threaded onto the top of the housing. This design improves the ease of fixing, installing, and disassembling the placement plate in the device.

[0021] 2. This supercritical CO2 extraction device delivers high-temperature steam into the cavity through a high-temperature steam input pipe, which in turn heats the heating coil, further heating the high-temperature steam inside the cavity. This heat is then transferred to the reaction vessel, causing the temperature inside the reaction vessel to rise. Simultaneously, a solenoid valve is opened, and a gas pump delivers carbon dioxide into the reaction vessel. CO2 extraction is completed under suitable temperature and pressure conditions, ensuring the smooth completion of the extraction process. Attached Figure Description
