<p>The present invention relates to a new method of extraction of solid compounds by microwaves and to the apparatus used in said method, the method comprising the steps of:
a. Placing the solid material (2) to be extracted and a solvent in a base vessel (1), said solid material being placed on a support (3) placed at a defined distance above the bottom of said vessel,
said solvent being, when starting the method, in a quantity sufficient to immerse the solid material (4a),
b. Subjecting said base vessel (1) to the microwave irradiation, the microwave irradiation causing at least partial evaporation of the solvent,
c. Removing said evaporated solvent such that the solvent in the base vessel no longer immerses said support and solid material (4b),
d. Collecting extracts of the solid material from the bottom of the base vessel.</p> |
