Extraction
Services pushing your innovations for tomorrow’s successful products
KCL has extensive experience in biomass purification through different solvent systems. Typical methods would be chemical countercurrent extraction, CO2 extraction, hot-water extraction, and solvent extraction.
These methods allow you to fractionate biomass to its components and recover them in pure fractions
Cases:
- High- and low-consistency extraction of biomass
- Purification of biomass
- Separation of certain compounds from the raw material in controlled conditions
- Purification of hemicellulose from pulp
- Enzyme treatment of materials
- Testing and analyzing different solvent systems
Different extraction capabilities:
- Twin-screw reactor type:
- 450 L capacity with higher capacity options up to 2200 L
- CO2 extraction equipment:
- 10 L batch reactor
- Batch extraction equipment:
- 300 L (0.3 m3) batch reactor
- 4000 L (4 m3) batch reactor with liquid circulation
Equipment specifications
- Atmospheric
- High- or low-consistency
- Continuous or batch possibility
- Direct or indirect heating with steam
- Closed-loop air circulation or atmospheric operation
- Possibility to input chemicals in different sectors
