Abstract

The tea polyphenol extracting process includes the steps of tea extraction, straining, ultrafiltering to eliminate pectine, nano filtering or reverse penetration to dewater and concentrate, vacuum concentration, spray drying to obtain tea extractive powder, supercritical CO2 fluid processing to eliminate cofeine and extract tea polyphenol, deionized water dissolution of tea extractive, extraction with ethyl acetate, and spray drying to eliminate solvent and obtaining high purity tea polyphenol product, which has purity over 98 %, extracting rate over 10 % and caffeine content less than 0.1 %. The tea polyphenol has powerful antioxidant property, and is especially suitable for application in food, health article and medicine. The present invention provides a way for the comprehensive utilization of low grade tea.

Description

The extracting method of tea-polyphenol

Affiliated technical field

The present invention relates to a kind of extracting method of tea-polyphenol.

Background technology

As everyone knows, have the function of anti-oxidant, anti-ageing, radioprotective, antitumor, sterilization and disinfection and raising body immunity in the tealeaves based on the tea-polyphenol (GTP) of catechin, it has been widely used in medicine, health care and food service industry.According to domestic and international publication, the method for extracting tea-polyphenol from tealeaves has: ion precipitation method, solvent extration, resin adsorption method and supercritical carbon dioxide extraction method etc.The present all shortcomings of various degrees of aforesaid method, as: ion precipitation method yield is low, corresponding cost height; The product of solvent extration exists organic solvent residue; Resin adsorption method technology is loaded down with trivial details, and cost is also high, is difficult to large-scale production; Supercritical CO ₂The fluid extraction method still lacks the maturity of technology and reliability at present, awaits further Depth Study.

Summary of the invention

The purpose of this invention is to provide the extracting method of the tea-polyphenol of a kind of supercutical fluid and solvent extraction combination, it has the product purity height, the yield height, and energy consumption is low, no solvent residue, method is simple, adapts to mass-producing and automatic production.

The object of the present invention is achieved like this:

The present invention has following advantage:

1, takes off pectin with ultrafiltration, to improve the tea-polyphenol quality product;

2, concentrate with nanofiltration or reverse osmosis dehydration, the catechin sex change loss of minimizing thermo-sensitivity also cuts down the consumption of energy;

3, use the Co 2 supercritical fluid caffein-free, can significantly reduce consumption of organic solvent, avoid hazardous solvent residual of product, use the co_2 supercritical fluid extraction tea-polyphenol, can improve product purity and improve ester catechin content.

4, tea-polyphenol product purity height (＞98%), yield height (＞10%), trimethyl-xanthine

Content low (＜0.1%);

5, technology is simple, can adapt to industrialization and automatic production.

Description of drawings

The present invention is further described below in conjunction with drawings and Examples.

Fig. 1 is a process flow sheet of the present invention.

The embodiment of the inventive method below is described.

Embodiment

Among Fig. 1, take by weighing 2000 gram low and middle-grade green tea or tea dusts, adds 20 liters of 90 ℃ of hot water, constant temperature stirring and leaching 30 minutes is crossed the filtering tea grounds, cools off below the tea to 40 ℃.Repeat lixiviate once, merge twice lixiviate tea through 120 order filter clothes filter 36.2 liters of tea, ultra-filtration membrane with molecular weight cut off 5～80,000 is removed pectin, with the dehydration of the reverse osmosis membrane of molecular weight cut off 50～100 concentrate 3.6 liters of strong tea water, spray-dried 320.8 gram powdery tea be carried thing, and powdery tea is carried thing, and to insert volume be that 5 liters supercritical extraction device inner edge feeds aqueous CO ₂The limit is warming up to 50 ℃ of constant temperature, is forced into 25～30Mpa, and static extracting 60 minutes is opened reducing valve, makes the CO that contains trimethyl-xanthine ₂Fluid step-down (Ps) is 5-6Mpa, isolates lurid pulpous state trimethyl-xanthine, gas CO in resolving separator ₂Recycle through strainer to high-pressure pump, the pulpous state trimethyl-xanthine gets 36.8 gram ground coffee alkali with vacuum-drying, purity 92.6%, is secondary solvent with the co_2 supercritical fluid extraction tea-polyphenol with 70% aquifer ethyl with the tea extract of caffein-free, 30-32Mpa is pressed in pressure (Pc) control, 35-50 ℃ of temperature (Tc), and static extracting is after 60 minutes, open reducing valve, make the CO that contains tea-polyphenol ₂Fluid step-down (Ps) is 5-6.5Mpa, isolates lurid tea-polyphenol slurries in separating separator, CO ₂The cycling extraction time is 6-8 hour, with of the deionized water dissolving of tea-polyphenol slurries with 2800 milliliters, it with volume ratio 1: 1.2 the continuous dynamic extraction of ethyl acetate three times, merge extraction phase, ethyl acetate is reclaimed in vacuum distilling, spraying drying makes elaboration tea-polyphenol 236.6 grams, purity 98.2%, yield 11.83% again.
