Application Overview
With depth color and strong turbidity, traditional Chinese medicine extract contains more impurities, such as very fine dregs, sediment, bacteria, starch, resins, oils, etc. . Pretreatment process of traditional Chinese medicine is to retain active ingredients of biological activity in medicine and remove the impurities. Conventional methods can not remove some impurities and too complicated, such as alcohol precipitation add evaporation process. The production cycle is long. Also, it has high system construction cost and energy consumption, low yield, active ingredient can not be retained in maximum, taste bad, poor operating environment, ethanol consumption, high cost and serious environmental pollution, waste management costs and some other shortage.
Applying ceramic membrane to Chinese medicine extract clarification, the extract can directly filtered without cooling and reduces the production procedures. The active ingredients in Chinese medicine is hardly intercepted, complete sterilized and shorten the production cycle, which eliminates alcohol consumption and the concentration process of evaporation. Combining the ceramic and organic membrane technology to Chinese medicine and plant extract clarification has become a good tendency for membrane application development.

Advantages
1. Reduce the process and shorten the production cycle.
2. With high clarity, removes suspended particles, bacteria, tannins, starch, colloidal, protein and part of the pigment molecules simultaneously.
3. Active ingredient is not intercepted basically and no increase of pigment.
4. No phase transition, no require for heating and save the energy.
5. Acid & alkali resistance, organic solvents resistance, high temperature resistance, long service life.
6. Ceramic membrane with strong anti-fouling property and high regeneration performance, can maintain a high flux
7. Significantly reduce ethanol consumption , encourage safe production, reduce investment cost of system construction and production lines.
8. Stable operation and easy to control processing parameters, product quality can be fully guaranteed.
9. Save solvent, reduce raw material cost and pollution control cost.
10. Can be integrated with Nanofiltration membrane system.
