Solid-Liquid Extraction Pilot Plant technical training equipment

SLa Solid-Liquid Extraction Pilot Plant technical training equipment

This unit enables to study countercurrent solid-liquid extractions in a continuous extractor with Archimedean screw.
TRAINING PROGRAM
This unit enables to deepen the following issues:
• Calculation of the number of theoretical stages
• Study of the extraction performance versus the nature and flow rate of the solid, and the type, flow rate and temperature of the solvent
• Extraction of oil from soybean laminate with hexane
• Extraction of chorophyl from spinach with ethanol
• Extraction of oil from olive husk with hexane
• Extraction of starch from potatoes with water
• Automatic temperature control with PID controller (for mod. SLa, only)
• Plant supervision by PC (for mod. SLa, only)

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
Mod. SLa
Besides being provided with all the characteristics of mod. SL, this model also includes the following additional items:
• Microprocessor digital PID controller with serial card
• Supervision software for Windows: it enables to control ON-OFF signals, analog signals coming from PID controller, real-time trend and historical trend
