Horizontal Rotary Extractors
- Best option for large extraction capacities.
- Based on solid- liquid mixing hence high rate of mass- transfer is available.
- Recovery of solvent is done with indirect steam heating.
- Less manual handling is required for discharge of exhausted materials.
- Suitable for GMP
Percolator Extractors
- Suitable for medium capacities extraction.
- Cost effective
- Provision for counter current operation and low solvent handling.
Liquid-Liquid Extraction
- Continuous operation brings down the solvent consumption.
- Maximum extraction efficiency
- No emulsion problem
