  • Publication number: 20230219872
    Abstract: Disclosed is an industrial extraction method of cannabidiol, pertaining to the field of medicine and chemical industry. The present invention aims to resolve the problems of difficulty in wax removal, low extraction rate of cannabidiol, and excessively high content of tetrahydrocannabinol during extraction using conventional solvents in the prior art. The extraction method employs raw material pretreatment, granulation, extraction, liquid-liquid extraction, decolorization, concentration, and other processes, such that wax removal from an extracted liquid is improved, the purity of a crude cannabidiol oil can be increased to 60%, and 40% of tetrahydrocannabinol can be removed. The method has high extraction yields and low costs, and can be implemented in large-scale industrial production.

  • Patent number: 11549128
    Abstract: A pretreatment method for producing a raw material of lycopene, comprising: uniformly mixing tomato peel residue with a fermenting agent, an antioxidant and an enzyme preparation, and subjecting the resultant to light-proof anaerobic fermentation. The present invention employs bacteria-enzyme-combined fermentation technology, which prolongs the storage period of wet tomato peel residue, and also destroys the cell wall of tomato peels, thus facilitating exaction of lycopene and improving the purity of lycopene extracted in the later stage.

  • Patent number: 11499052
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing lycopene crystals with high purity and low harm. The method comprises the following steps: (1) mixing lycopene oleoresin with a mixed solvent consisting of an alkane and a lower alcohol, and heating and stirring the resultant for dissolution to form a homogenous solution; (2) cooling the homogenous solution for crystallization, filtering the resultant to obtain a filter cake; and (3) washing the filter cake successively using a lower alcohol and an alkane, and drying the resultant to obtain lycopene crystals. According to the method provided by the present invention, lycopene crystals can be obtained using a mixed solvent by means of one step crystallization, and the crystal content is further improved and harmful substances in the crystals are reduced by means of a two-step crystal washing process to obtain lycopene crystals with high purity and low harm.
