Embodiment 1

[0035] Take the dried pomelo fruit, crush it through a 10-mesh sieve, take 160kg of the undersieve, and put it into 1600L hot water heated to 85°C, continue heating to 100°C, and keep the temperature for extraction for 1.5 hours. The extract was separated, and the filter residue was heated to 100°C with 1600L of 85°C water for extraction for 1.5 hours. The extract was separated and combined with the first extract. Pass the combined extracts through a decanter centrifuge with a rotating speed of 12000 R / min to remove mechanical impurities. After the centrifuge liquid is cooled below 60°C, it is filtered with an ultrafiltration membrane to remove macromolecular impurities. The inlet pressure of the ultrafiltration membrane is 0.25MPA, the outlet pressure is 0.14MPA, and the flow rate is 80M 3 / H. The liquid passing through the membrane is then concentrated by the membrane, the pressure of the solution entering is 0.9Mpa, and the pressure of the solution exiting is 0.45Mpa. Fi...

[0037] Take the dried pomelo fruit, crush it through a 10-mesh sieve, remove 200kg of the sieve, and put it into 2000L hot water heated to 85°C, continue to heat to 100°C, and keep this temperature for extraction for 1.5 hours. The extract was separated, and the filter residue was heated to 100°C with 2000L of 85°C water for extraction for 1.5 hours. The extract was separated and combined with the first extract. Pass the combined extracts through a decanter centrifuge with a rotating speed of 12000 R / min to remove mechanical impurities. After the centrifuge liquid is cooled below 60°C, use ultrafiltration membrane to filter out macromolecular impurities.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting naringenin from grapefruits. The method comprises the following steps: taking dry falling grapefruits, carrying out water-extraction, filtering by using an ultrafiltration membrane, carrying out reduced pressure concentration and crystallization, carrying out acid hydrolysis, and crystallizing the obtained product, so that an over 98% naringenin product is obtained. The method is simple and easy to operate, easily available in raw materials, short in time consuming, less in energy consumption, high in extraction ratio, unnecessary for column passing, and suitable for industrial mass production, less organic solvent is used, the cost is saved, and the environmental pollution is reduced.
