The stainless steel mixing tank mainly includes oil-water separator, cooler, condenser, feeding port, foam trap, pipeline filter, pump and other components. It is suitable for use in laboratories and production of traditional Chinese medicine, food, health products, cosmetics, etc. It can also be used for ultrasonic dispersion, emulsification, slow-release drug ultramicrocapsules and nanocapsules preparation research and use. It is an ideal equipment for schools, scientific research institutions and pharmaceutical companies.

The stainless steel mixing tank can also be vacuum extracted to effectively reduce the loss of heat-sensitive active ingredients. At the same time, the extraction unit adopts frame stirring, so that the large volume of raw materials can be fully contacted with the solvent, accelerating the precipitation of active ingredients in the raw materials. The equipment uses a superheated water generator, and the heating and cooling speeds are very fast. In the same time, the production department of vacuum concentration equipment heated by heat transfer oil can produce more batches.

The temperature of the stainless steel mixing tank is sensitive (accuracy ±1°), and the heater can quickly reflect your operating instructions, avoiding the dilemma of waiting for the slow natural cooling of the temperature when heating with heat transfer oil. This equipment is suitable for various processes such as normal pressure and normal temperature extraction, dynamic hot reflux overflow extraction, vacuum extraction and vacuum scraper concentration of extracts in traditional Chinese medicine, health products, biopharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food and other industries. The equipment can extract dynamically and continuously. The equipment is suitable for extracting effective ingredients of various natural products with volatile or non-volatile solvents.

Four main operation control links of stainless steel stirring tank

1. Heating operation of stainless steel stirring tank

When extracting with water, steam is first introduced for heating. When the temperature reaches the extraction temperature, steam is then passed through the interlayer for indirect heating to maintain the temperature in the tank within the specified range.

If alcohol is used for extraction, all interlayer steam is used for indirect heating.

2. Circulation operation of stainless steel stirring tank

Forced circulation: During the extraction process, the liquid is forced to circulate with a pump, that is, the leachate is discharged from the lower discharge port of the tank body, filtered through the pipeline filter, and then pumped back into the tank body with a water pump. To accelerate the relative movement between the solid and liquid phases, so that the floating medicinal materials can be quickly dissolved in the solvent, thereby enhancing the convection diffusion and leaching process, and improving the leaching efficiency.

Reflux cycle: During the extraction process, a large amount of steam is generated from the steam outlet through the foam trap to the heat exchanger for condensation, and then enters the cooler for cooling, and the liquid flows back to the dynamic extraction tank. This cycle continues until the extraction ends.

3. Discharge operation of the extract

After the extraction is completed, the medicinal liquid is discharged from the lower liquid outlet of the tank body, filtered through the pipeline filter, and then pumped to the concentration section for further concentration.

4. Operation of extracting volatile oil

During the extraction process, the medicinal liquid vapor is condensed by the condenser, and then cooled by the cooler and directly enters the oil-water separator for oil-water separation. At this time, the valve channel of the cooler needs to be closed. The separated volatile oil is discharged from the oil outlet, and the aromatic water returns to the dynamic extraction tank from the reflux water pipeline.

Mixing Tank is such a magical existence, playing a very important role.
