A tubular centrifuge is used to separate solid particles, plant fibers, and impurities from herbal extracts, improving the purity and stability of the liquid. This process is widely applied in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and traditional medicine production. Below is an overview of the steps, advantages, and key considerations:
Separation Steps
Pre-Treatment:
Herbal Preparation: Crush or grind dried herbs and extract bioactive compounds using solvents (e.g., water, ethanol).
Coarse Filtration: Remove large plant debris (e.g., stems, leaves) via sieving or mesh filtration.
Centrifugal Separation:
Feeding: Transfer the pre-treated herbal liquid into the tubular centrifuge.
Parameter Adjustment: Set rotational speed to 8,000-12,000 rpm (varies with particle size and viscosity).
Solid Phase: Cell fragments, fibers, and insoluble residues deposit on the tube wall.
Liquid Phase: Clarified herbal extract is discharged through the outlet.
Continuous Mode: Industrial models allow uninterrupted processing for large batches.
Post-Treatment:
Extract Collection: Collect the clarified liquid for concentration, drying, or formulation.
Residue Handling: Process solids for secondary extraction or discard as organic waste.
Equipment Cleaning: Sanitize the centrifuge to prevent cross-contamination.
