Revand Chinni
Purity Levels
95% 3,4,5, Trihydroxy Stebine - o-b-d-g
Mechotech designs and manufactures turnkey herbal extraction plants for Revand Chinni, listed in the catalogue with a 95% figure for a compound named in the product tree as “3,4,5, Trihydroxy Stebine - o-b-d-g” (reproduced as listed; the spelling is not reconciled with any other source). Mechotech’s legacy page for Revand Chini (Indian Rhubarb) describes extraction of anthraquinones and other active phytoconstituents from the roots and rhizomes, and says Revand Chini is widely used in Ayurvedic and Unani systems for digestive and detoxifying properties. The two sources name different constituent classes, so the marker and the assay method are agreed with the client. The Sureka Life Sciences catalogue has no Revand Chini entry.
Mechotech’s Revand Chinni plant is configured around the specific chemistry and processing requirements of the raw material. Built in SS 316L with integrated solvent recovery, automation and full documentation, each plant is delivered as a commissioned turnkey system. The figure 95% 3,4,5, Trihydroxy Stebine - o-b-d-g is the catalogue standardisation; the specification actually targeted is set during process development and pilot validation.

Capacity is configured to raw-material supply, confirmed buyer volume and investment timeline; a pilot plant is recommended to validate parameters before scaling.
Manufacturing Process
Raw Material Preparation
Revand Chinni raw material is authenticated, cleaned, tested for moisture and milled to a uniform particle size to maximise solvent contact before extraction. The root-and-rhizome feed form is confirmed with the client.
Extraction
The prepared Revand Chinni raw material is extracted with food-grade solvent (alcohol / aqueous) in closed jacketed SS 316L extractors under controlled temperature and over multiple cycles to recover the target constituents.
Filtration
The extract (miscella) is clarified through a plate-and-frame filter press followed by cartridge polish filters.
Concentration & Solvent Recovery
The miscella is concentrated in a falling-film / vacuum evaporator, with solvent recovered through the condenser return system.
Standardisation
The concentrate is assayed and adjusted to the client’s target specification (catalogue figure: 95% 3,4,5, Trihydroxy Stebine - o-b-d-g) before the final finishing step.
Drying & Quality Control
The standardised Revand Chinni extract is kept as a concentrate or spray- or vacuum-dried to the required form, then released after assay, residual-solvent, heavy-metal, microbial and moisture testing.

Key Features
SS 316L Construction
Electropolished SS 316L product-contact surfaces with CIP operation between batches.
Closed-Loop Solvent Recovery
Integrated condenser-return recovery reuses solvent between batches and reduces solvent loss.
Standardised to Specification
In-process and batch-release assay are used to check the finished extract against its agreed target specification (catalogue figure: 95% 3,4,5, Trihydroxy Stebine - o-b-d-g).
Flexible Finishing
The extract can be finished as a concentrate or, with a matched spray or vacuum dryer, as a free-flowing powder.
Scalable Batch Capacity
Plants are configured to requirement from pilot scale upward, with modular expansion.
