The setup consists of Bonnotto type extractor of slotted circular plates
arranged one above the other in opposite radial opening. The solids are
introduced at the top through a hopper spread over the top plate by a
rack and pushed to slot to fall to the next plate below and so on to the
bottom of the column.
The solvent is introduced near the bottom of the column and it flow
upward counter currently to the solids. A pump supplies the solvent and
flow rate is monitored by means of a Rotameter. At the bottom of column a
screw conveyor arrangement is done to remove the extracted solids
driven by means of an electric motor. Solvent feed tank is kept in a
bath fitted with heater and digital temperature controller is used to
maintain the constant temperature.
