Fenugreek Oleoresin Extraction Processing Plant Capacity: 100 Tpd Ton/day

We MECH O TECH LLP, HYDERABAD, INDIA, well known manufacturer for solvent extraction plants for different Oleo Resins.
Fenugreek Oleoresin Extraction Plant is a specialized facility designed for the extraction of oleoresin from fenugreek seeds. Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is an herb commonly used in culinary and traditional medicine applications, and its oleoresin is sought after for its various beneficial properties.

Here is a general description of a Fenugreek Oleoresin Extraction Plant:

Raw Material Handling:

The plant begins with the handling of fenugreek seeds. These seeds are carefully inspected, cleaned, and sorted to ensure the quality of the final product.
Extraction Process:

The extraction of oleoresin is typically done through a solvent extraction method or through supercritical fluid extraction using carbon dioxide. Both methods involve the use of specialized equipment to separate the oleoresin from the fenugreek seeds.
Solvent Extraction:

In the solvent extraction method, the fenugreek seeds are first ground into a coarse powder. This powder is then mixed with a suitable solvent (such as hexane) to extract the oleoresin. The mixture is then subjected to a series of extraction, distillation, and separation processes to obtain the pure oleoresin.
Supercritical Fluid Extraction:

In supercritical fluid extraction, carbon dioxide is used as the solvent. The fenugreek seeds are exposed to supercritical CO2, which allows for the efficient extraction of the oleoresin. The advantage of this method is that it avoids the use of potentially harmful solvents, and the extraction process is considered more environmentally friendly.
Filtration and Purification:

The extracted oleoresin is then subjected to filtration and purification processes to remove any impurities or remaining solvent residues. This ensures the final product meets quality standards.
Concentration:

The oleoresin may be concentrated to increase its potency and effectiveness. This can be achieved through methods such as vacuum distillation or evaporation.
Quality Control:

Stringent quality control measures are implemented at various stages of the extraction process to ensure the purity, potency, and safety of the fenugreek oleoresin.
