Abstract

PURPOSE: A device and method for selective accumulation of volatility (aromatic compounds) component when herb drugs distillation are provided to extract only aromatic compounds without unpleasant odor. CONSTITUTION: The method is characterized in that a vapor generated in the temperature range of 50 to 59°C at a pressure of 1.2 atm is converted to liquid and discarded; and a vapor (aromatic compounds) generated at higher than 60°C is collected in liquid.

Description

Accumulation equipment of volatity (aromatic compounds) compoent when Hurb drugs distilling}

The present invention relates to a device for collecting volatile (aromatic) components generated during herbal extraction.

The volatile (aromatic) component of the herbal medicine means a unique ingredient of the herbal medicine which is volatilized when heated to 60 ° C. or higher. It is originally dissolved in water when it is heated in water and evaporated with water vapor, which not only has a unique smell of herbal medicine, but also serves as a special ingredient as a medicine. Therefore, in order to maintain the peculiar smell of herbal medicine and special ingredients as herbs, a device for collecting must be necessary.

In the past, the extractor was used to seal the extractor to preserve the unique smell and herbal ingredients of the herbal medicine, but this could preserve the unique smell and herbal ingredients of the herbal medicine. It was difficult to extract because it was preserved.

In particular, if the extractor 5 is sealed and the pressure of 90 ° C. or higher and 1.5 atm is generated, the odor generated primarily is vaporized as it is, and then mixed with volatile (aromatic) components to be discharged into the air as it is when the lid of the extractor is opened. It is impossible to maintain the desired components as extraction. Particularly, in a closed space at high temperature and high pressure, the phenomenon of vapor liquefying occurs, resulting in odor being introduced into the extract as it is. In addition, since the pressure in the extractor is continuously raised, the risk of abrasion or destruction of the extractor may occur. Therefore, during general extraction, a steam outlet for lowering the pressure is installed. When the steam is discharged, the volatile (aromatic) component is discharged into the air at the same time.

Therefore, the main object of the present invention is a device consisting of a condenser, a cooling tower, and a collecting tank, which makes it possible to safely and easily collect volatile (aromatic) components of herbal medicines. It can be collected according to.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is connected to the condenser and the extractor in series with the coolant can continuously go in and out and configured to connect the collection tank in series with the condenser again to withstand pressure of 2 atm or more. There is a need for a digital temperature controller that can accurately measure temperature.

The present invention is to install a circulation cooling tower for the eccentric construction means to install a device that can continuously supply the cooling water and to connect the condenser and the extractor in series, it is designed to be separated. In addition, a collection tank made of stainless steel was connected in series with a condenser to withstand more than 2 atmospheres. In addition, it is designed to control temperature from outside by attaching digital temperature controller inside the extractor. By doing so, the water vapor generated in the extractor is made to be 100% liquid and transported to the collection tank, characterized in that it is safe and easy to use.

When explaining the preferred embodiment of the volatile (aromatic) component collecting device when the extraction of the herbal medicine according to the present invention in detail as follows.

A preferred embodiment according to the invention consists of an extractor 5 with a digital temperature control device 6 attached thereto, a condenser 3 connected to a cooling tower 2 and a collecting tank 4 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. The steam generated from the extractor 5 around the extractor 5 should be installed at the upper part so that all the steam can move to the condenser 3. If the conveying line is too long at the time of installation, cooling may occur during the conveying process. Therefore, it should be arranged to keep the short distance as possible. In addition, the connection of the cooling tower 2 and the condenser 3 is also arranged so that the transfer distance is short, but the cooling water is transferred by the pump, so the capacity of the pump should not be too small. It is best to install the collecting tank 4 directly under the condenser, but if it is difficult to install spatially, install the collecting tank 4 and install the transfer line having a length that can flow out under the condenser 3 as shown in FIG. You will have to use the method. Condenser (3) should be configured to allow the cooling water to sufficiently cool the steam as shown in Fig. 3, and should be designed by giving a bend as shown in Fig. 3 so as to maximize the area where the coolant and the steam meet.

With this structure, it was possible to devise a way to remove the primary odor and preserve the unique smell and ingredients of herbal medicine. This method is to separate the water vapor generated during extraction by converting it into a liquid state rather than a vapor state. The water vapor generated in the first 50-59 ° C 1.2 atmospheres is converted into a liquid state and collected and discarded. It is a method of collecting water vapor generated at a high temperature by converting it into a liquid state. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the volatile (aromatic) component vaporized using the cooling tower 2 and the condenser 3 is quenched and liquefied into a state in which it can be collected. Aromatic components)

At this time, it is necessary to know the characteristics of each herbal medicine, especially if you know exactly what the volatile (aromatic) components included in each herbal medicine can be very useful to use the present invention.

Such a device can be used not only for extraction but also for other devices, and the same effect can be obtained by installing a condenser and a cooling tower in an existing pouring device, and thus can be widely used.

According to the present invention, the condenser and the cooling tower can be suitably used to remove odor generated during herbal extraction and to separate the volatile (aromatic) components, thereby obtaining an excellent extract.

In addition, since the volatile (aromatic) component can be obtained separately according to each step and temperature, only the necessary components can be obtained and used.
