Prasad Lab Equipment

A Rotary Extractor Rotary Agitator is a specialized laboratory or industrial device designed for efficient extraction and mixing of samples. This equipment combines rotary motion and agitation to facilitate thorough mixing, extraction, or washing processes in various applications such as chemical, pharmaceutical, environmental, and food testing labs.

Key Features of a Rotary Extractor Rotary Agitator:

1. Rotary Motion:

   • The device provides a controlled rotational motion to the sample containers, allowing for continuous contact and interaction of the solvent and samples. This rotary motion is ideal for maximizing extraction efficiency.

2. Adjustable Agitation:

   • Most rotary extractors come with variable speed settings to control the intensity of the agitation, ensuring that the process can be tailored to different sample types or viscosities.

A T.C.L.P. Extractor (Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure Extractor) is a specialized laboratory apparatus used for environmental testing, specifically designed to perform the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP). This test is essential for determining whether a waste material contains hazardous levels of toxic substances that could potentially leach into groundwater or soil when disposed of in landfills.

Overview of T.C.L.P. Extractor:

The T.C.L.P. Extractor is used in conjunction with the TCLP method, which is a key procedure defined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The procedure helps determine if a waste is considered hazardous based on its leachability, which indicates the potential risk of contamination in the environment.

Key Features of T.C.L.P. Extractor:

1. Agitation Mechanism:

   • The extractor has a mechanical agitation system that ensures the waste sample and leaching fluid are mixed thoroughly. This mimics the leaching process that would occur in an actual landfill or waste disposal scenario.
