Equipment And Methods For Extracting Traditional Chinese Medicine

The commonly used extraction methods (such as decoction, reflux, impregnation, percolation, etc.) have disadvantages in terms of retaining effective ingredients and removing ineffective ingredients, such as large loss of effective ingredients, long cycle, multiple processes, and low extraction rate. In the past decade, many new technologies and methods have emerged in the extraction of traditional Chinese medicine. The application of these new technologies and methods has enabled the extraction of Chinese herbal medicine to not only conform to traditional Chinese medicine theory, but also achieve the goal of improving the yield and purity of active ingredients.
Traditional Chinese medicine extracts require high production conditions and technology. Many advanced extraction, separation, purification, and drying equipment and technologies are applied to the production of traditional Chinese medicine extracts, greatly improving the level of engineering technology and equipment in traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceuticals.
