3.1.2
Hot Extraction
Step 1: Extraction
The sample is located in the beaker.
The beaker contains the solvent.
The solvent is heated, vapor rises up to the condenser, con-
denses and drops into the beaker with the sample.
Step 2: Rinsing
The solvent in the beaker is heated up and evaporated.
The vapor rises up to the condenser.
The condensed solvent flows into the beaker with the sample.
The tank bottle valve opens periodically and condensed solvent
flows in the tank bottle.
The solvent level decreases.
Step 3: Drying
The solvent is heated, vapor rises up to the condenser, con-
denses and flows into tank.
The analyte remains in the beaker.
3.1.3
Economic Continuous Extraction
Step 1: Extraction
The sample is located in the extraction chamber.
The beaker contains the solvent.
The solvent is heated, vapor rises up around the sample to the
condenser, condenses and drops back into extraction chamber
through the sample into the beaker.
Step 2: Drying
The solvent is heated, vapor rises up around the sample to the
condenser, condenses and flows into tank.
The analyte remains in the beaker.
