Brown Colour

Mechotech designs and manufactures turnkey natural colour extraction plants for Brown Colour. We supply the complete machinery to process Brown Colour into a consistent, specification-grade extract for the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, and fragrance industries.

Mechotech's Brown Colour plant is engineered from first principles around the specific chemistry and processing requirements of Brown Colour. Built in SS 316L with integrated solvent recovery (>95%), automation, and full documentation, each plant is delivered as a commissioned, performance-verified turnkey system.

Manufacturing Process

1

Raw Material Preparation

Brown Colour raw material is authenticated, tested for moisture, and milled to a uniform particle size to maximise solvent contact before extraction.

2

Extraction

Milled Brown Colour is extracted with food-grade solvent (alcohol / aqueous) in closed jacketed SS 316L extractors under controlled temperature and multiple cycles to maximise recovery of the target actives.

3

Filtration

The extract (miscella) is clarified through a plate-and-frame filter press followed by cartridge polish filters.

4

Concentration & Solvent Recovery

The miscella is concentrated in a falling-film / vacuum evaporator with greater than 95% solvent recovery through the condenser return system.

5

Standardisation

The concentrate is assayed and adjusted to the declared target specification before drying.

6

Drying & Quality Control

The standardised Brown Colour extract is spray- or vacuum-dried, then released after assay, residual-solvent, heavy-metal, microbial, and moisture testing.

Applications

  • Pharmaceutical standardised ingredient supply
  • Nutraceutical capsule, tablet, and supplement manufacturing
  • Food, flavour, and beverage applications
  • Cosmetic and personal care active ingredients
  • Ayurvedic and traditional medicine preparations
  • Export to regulated-market ingredient buyers

Key Features

  • GMP-Compliant SS 316L Construction

    Electropolished SS 316L product-contact surfaces meet WHO-GMP and Schedule M requirements, with CIP operation between batches.

  • Closed-Loop Solvent Recovery (>95%)

    Integrated recovery returns greater than 95% of the solvent per batch, cutting operating cost and meeting CPCB discharge norms.

  • Standardised to Specification

    In-process and batch-release assay hold the finished Brown Colour extract within its declared specification.

  • Integrated Drying

    A matched spray/vacuum dryer produces a free-flowing, low-moisture powder ready for encapsulation and blending.

  • Scalable Batch Capacity

    Plants are configured from 100 kg/batch pilot scale to 2,000+ kg/batch commercial capacity with modular expansion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Mechotech supply the complete machinery for Brown Colour?
Yes. Mechotech supplies the complete turnkey plant for Brown Colour — engineered, fabricated at our Hyderabad facility, installed, and commissioned as a single performance-verified system that produces specification-grade output from day one of handover.
What specification can the Brown Colour plant achieve?
The plant is engineered to reach the client's target specification for Brown Colour, confirmed by batch-release testing with full certificate-of-analysis documentation.
What production capacities are available for the Brown Colour plant?
Mechotech builds Brown Colour plants from pilot systems for product development to multi-tonne commercial plants. Capacity is selected from raw-material supply, confirmed buyer volume, and investment timeline; we recommend a pilot plant to validate parameters before scaling.
Which industries use the Brown Colour plant?
Pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food and flavour, cosmetic, and fragrance manufacturers across India and export markets use Mechotech plants for consistent, compliant production.
