The invention relates to extraction
solvent for extracting effective components from hop
raw material and extraction and
separation method thereof, wherein, the method for extraction and separation of hop extract and hop
essential oil includes following steps as follows: (1) hop is filled in an extraction kettle and when the volume of
raw material reaches 30 to 80 percent of that of the extraction kettle, feeding is stopped and a feeding-discharging control valve is closed; (2) a
vacuum pump reduces the vacuum degree inside the extraction kettle below 1x10<4>pa to
discharge the fixed gas from the kettle; (3) the
liquid extract inside a
solvent storage tank is fed into the extraction kettle till the hop
raw material is completely immersed in the extract; (4) the extraction kettle is heated to maintain the temperature of the kettle between 10 DEG C and 50 DEG C, the extraction pressure between 0.4MPa to 2.0MPa and the extraction time between 40min to 60min and one-off immersion extraction is completed after
filtration and separation of
solid-
liquid phase; (5) mixed liquid is fed into a
temporary storage kettle through combined extraction and then is injected into an analytic kettle from the
temporary storage kettle through a transfer pump; (6)
mixed solution after primary analytic separation is injected into a secondary analytic kettle through the transfer pump to be heated through ajacket type
heat exchanger and then is pumped continuously by a
vacuum pump set; in addition, in the
vacuum state of 1*10<4>pa-5*10<-2>pa, analytic
evaporation of entrainer is completed and the entrainer is recycled after condensation by a
recovery tank; meanwhile, the mixture of hop extract and hop
essential oil is obtained inside the secondary analytic kettle.
