SCHRADER - Extraction Plants

Extraction is any separation process in which a (solid, liquid or gaseous) solvent is used to extract one or more components from a natural raw material, the extraction material. The extracted substance is called an extract. The substances to be extracted dissolve better in the solvent than in the raw material. The substances to be extracted can be solve with the solvent from the raw material. In addition, pressure and temperature usually increase the dissolve of substances significantly. SCHRADER uses mainly vegetable and animal raw materials such as vanilla, liquorice, curcuma or bacon in the extraction process and various alcohol-water mixtures as solvents.
