Timatic extractors are solid-liquid extractors that effectively combine multiple technologies to guarantee excellent results when extracting active constituents from biological and other materials
Supercritical Fluid Technologies pressure enhanced solvent extractors take conventional solvent based extraction technology to a new level.
The Timatic series extractors, are solid-liquid extractors that effectively combine multiple technologies to guarantee excellent results when extracting active constituents from biological and other materials.
This extraction technique effectively combines the use of solvents and pressure to provide superior yields and quality.
Extractions are typically made at room temperature to ensure extracts maintain their inherent natural properties.
Extractions are accomplished by the double effect of pressure/decompression and forced percolation of the solvent under pressure through the raw material.
The extraction cycle alternates dynamic phase(s) obtained via a programmed pressure, and static phase(s) for the transfer of the desired extract into the solvent.
During the primary dynamic phase, pressure is generated within the circulating solvent to ensure efficient percolation.
At the same time, formation of preferential channels and over-saturation of the product are avoided.
It is possible to concentrate essences, flavours, fragrances, essential oils, biologically active compounds and materials of interest from flowers, leaves, fruits, bark, roots, buds, seeds, stems, and medicinal plants.
The extractor is a space saving unit and contributes to a reduction in labour time and costs through a minimal loss of solvent during the process phases.
It is easy to use with simple cleaning and maintenance procedures.
Full microprocessor control of all functions and real-time visual display show cycle sequence and process parameters.
An automatic alarm indicates process anomalies making this unit well suited to laboratory and production needs.
