Pressure and Temperature Measurement during Solvent Extraction
Recover costly product and reduce waste with precise temperature and pressure instrumentation.
Miscella, which is a mixture of solvent and oil, is heated during solvent extraction to evaporate and recover 95% of the solvent. The rest of the miscella is then removed from the oil using a steam stripping column. During this process it is crucial to closely monitor the pressure and temperature of the solvent, oil, and miscella to ensure adequate extraction.
