April 14/Hamburg, Germany/Symrise Press Release -- Symrise has dedicated its new SymTrap plant in Hamburg, Germany.
Previously, SymTrap® could only be used to extract and concentrate volatile flavoring substances from the water used in distillation processes. Based on an adsorption-desorption process, the technology represents an intelligent application of physical principles that, in addition to saving considerable energy, is also highly effective, notes a Symrise press release. The method has recently been taken to the next logical level and expanded as a gentle method for extracting secondary plant materials with biofunctional properties.
