Ganoderma Lucidum Polysaccharide Membrane Separation & Low-Temperature Concentration Equipment
Background Introduction
Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (GLP) are water-soluble proteoglycans extracted from Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies and serve as its core active ingredients. GLP is a top-choice nutritional supplement for boosting human immunity.
Traditional separation and purification methods for GLP include enzymatic extraction, acid extraction and alkaline extraction. However, all three approaches suffer from long separation cycles and low extraction efficiency, which greatly raise time costs and hinder large-scale mass production. In addition, aqueous solutions of conventionally purified GLP exhibit poor stability. When subjected to repeated temperature shifts from low to high temperature, insoluble substances precipitate heavily, severely impairing the storage stability of finished GLP products.
Application of Membrane Separation Technology in Ganoderma Lucidum Polysaccharide Extraction
With years of practical experience serving polysaccharide extraction manufacturers and proprietary strengths in membrane separation technology, BluewavBio has successfully applied membrane separation technology to the GLP extraction process. Membrane separation technology is ideal for isolating bioactive substances such as Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides, featuring intact activity retention, high separation efficiency, low energy consumption, simple equipment structure, continuous production capacity and zero pollution.
Note: The original text mentions "rhamnose extraction process", which is judged to be a typographical error for "Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide extraction process"; the translation follows the actual product application scenario of GLP without altering the original text logic.
GLP Membrane Extraction Process Flow
Ganoderma spore powder extract → Coarse filtration → Membrane filtration → Membrane concentration → Post-procedures including alcohol precipitation
Advantages of GLP Membrane Extraction Technology
- Microfiltration membranes are adopted for crude GLP liquid treatment to effectively remove insoluble solid particles, bacteria and other impurities from the extract;
- High separation precision of membrane concentration systems achieves molecular-level sieving and retention of GLP, delivering high product yield;
- It is a pure physical separation process with no phase change, driven solely by electric power. The energy consumption for dehydration and concentration stands at approximately 10–15 cubic meters of water per ton of feed liquid;
- Cross-flow operation design eliminates membrane fouling and clogging without filter aids;
- Modular system layout occupies minimal floor space with simple operation and maintenance;
- The whole set of equipment is fabricated from sanitary-grade 304/316L stainless steel, complying with China’s SC food production licensing standards.
