The Bioactive Material Transfer from Herbs
Authors: , ,
Abstract: The bioactive substance transfer from the medical herbs in the solid- liquid system was investigated. The investigation was performed by experiments in laboratory and pilot plant conditions. The experiments were carried out with Oenothere biennis L. and Betula pendula Roth L. at the atmospheric pressure. The specific substance transfer rate and diffusion coefficients were determined. The overall mass transfer coefficients in the liquid phase were defined involving convention, inner diffusion and bounded layer diffusion. The component mass transfer coefficients were examined.
