A method for extracting herbal medicine includes: step one, spray extraction; step two, pressure filtration and concentration; step three, spray and countercurrent precipitation; and step four, concentrating reduced pressure and drying.

Disclosed is a process for enriching silicate content in drinking water that includes separating raw water via reverse osmosis into a permeate comprising demineralised raw water and a retentate comprising mineral enriched raw water. The permeate is mixed with a water glass solution comprising sodium silicate and/or potassium silicate. An ion exchange process is used to reduce the concentration of sodium and/or potassium ions in at least part of the mixture. At least part of the retentate is supplied to the mixture after reducing the concentration of sodium and/or potassium ions to provide a silicate-enriched drinking water. Also disclosed is an apparatus for producing a drinking water enriched with silicate. The apparatus includes a reverse osmosis unit, a mixing unit, an ion exchanger, and a feed unit for feeding at least part of the retentate to the mixture after reducing the concentration of sodium and/or potassium ions.

A method for extracting animal-derived pulmonary surfactants, including forming an extract of an animal lung, forming a precipitate by mixing the extract of the animal lung with a cationic flocculant solution containing poly(diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride) (pDADMAC), separating an organic phase containing pulmonary surfactants from the precipitate, recovering the pulmonary surfactants from the organic phase.

This invention is related to an improvement in the process of filtrate extension of a reaction where at least a set of filtrates of a set of reaction are mixed together to form for a filtrate extension thereby the reaction yields higher order chemical auxiliaries and the reaction is observed that either as convergent or divergent pathway substrate reacts to give qualitative products quantitative, conversions and very less in numbers. Among qualitative conversion reaction filtrate takes pivotal role in synthesizing chemical auxiliaries.

A fuel filter device includes a bag-shaped filter member filtering fuel that is drawn into a fuel pump, an inner frame member retaining the filter member in an expanded state, and a mounting member connected to the inner frame member and serving to communicate an internal space of the filter member with an outside. A valve chamber is defined by the inner frame member and the mounting member, and a check valve serving to prevent backflow of fuel is disposed in the valve chamber. The check valve includes a flat-plate shaped valve body having elasticity. The check valve opens against its weight when the fuel pump is operated, and the check valve closes due to its weight when the operation of the fuel pump is stopped.
