As people’s health awareness and living standards improve, more and more people start to pay attention to the health and science of diet. Herbal tea is highly respected for its refreshing flavor and certain health benefits and is unique among all kinds of beverages.
During the processing of sugar-free herbal tea, the extraction and concentration of the original liquid is an essential step, which is the same as the traditional method. Raw liquid extraction obtains active ingredients from substances through chemical or mechanical processes. In recent years, with the help of emerging technologies such as supercritical CO2 extraction equipment
, herbal tea production has become faster and more efficient. Advanced extraction technology can quickly and perfectly extract the active ingredients from herbs, enabling herbal tea to fully release its unique herbal flavor and nutritional value. -

Supercritical CO2 extraction is a method that utilizes high temperature and pressure to transform carbon dioxide into a supercritical state. In this special state, carbon dioxide has a strong dissolving ability, which can efficiently extract the fresh flavor components and beneficial substances in the tea leaves. Compared with traditional herbal tea production methods, supercritical carbon dioxide extraction technology does not require the use of organic solvents, and does not produce organic solvent residues, which is safer and more harmless. In addition, due to the low-temperature characteristics of supercritical carbon dioxide, the active ingredients in the tea can be effectively retained, making supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of herbal tea advantageous in terms of taste and nutrition.
