Preliminary Report on Extraction Technology of Bio-Flocculant From Moringa oleifera
The initial results from study on flocculant producing of Moringa oleifera are reported. The seed of Moringa oleifera is degreased through SFE-CO2(Supercritical Fluid Extraction) to obtain quality non-fatty seedcake. Bio-flocculant is then pre-pared by vacuum extraction, evaporation and concentration of film, gel chromatography, separation and purification of film and freeze drying. After stored the sample for 24 months, the flocculation rate is above 91 percent for solid flocculant and 85 percent for the liquid.
