Ethanol Extraction

 

C-40 Centrifuge Extractor

Overview

The C-40 is a centrifugal extractor designed for the optimal extraction of cannabinoids at mid to large scale volumes. With a 133L material basket, an operator can run up to 40 lb per run every 10-20 minutes*. The system is as fast as it is versatile, allowing different user specifications for temperature (down to -40°C), rotation speed, and retention time creating the optimal combination of control and ease of use.

Optimal Cannaboid Extraction Technology

  • 97%+ removal of ethanol (solvent)
  • 98%+ removal of cannabinoids
  • Optimized basket configuration for long term durability and balance
  • Proprietary Opti-Balance intelligent load sensing system for superior safety and product durability
  • 133L material basket
  • Average cycle time of 10 - 20 minutes*
  • Process up to 40 lb per cycle*
  • Closed-loop system
  • Engineered for ease of operation by a single operator
    • Superior Safety & Product Durability

    Designed for simplified material loading and unloading, the C-40 is very user-friendly. Engineered for ease of operation by a single operator.

    Designed, Engineered & Manufactured in the USA

    The C-40 features multi-function jacketed housing supporting either liquid coolant or vacuum insulation with a low temperature rating to -40°C. All wetted parts are 304L, 316, and 2205 sanitary stainless steel.

    X10 MSE - Extraction System

    Overview

    The X10 MSE (multi-solvent extractor) is the company’s flagship extraction system. Utilizing ethanol solvents, the X10 processes more than 10 lbs of material per run with an average 55 minute recovery time* making it ideal for mid-level commercial production and craft applications. With patent pending jacketed vessels, the X10 comes equipped with on-demand heating and chilling, providing the system with maximum control and ease of operation.

    • Devex CryoEXS - Crude Oil Extraction

    DEVEX CryoEXS 400

    All-in-one Cryo-Extraction, Solvent Recovery and Decarboxylation system. Features: Low residual solvent left in spent biomass by means of steam stripping; Extraction temperature: sub-zero, no need to de-wax.

    DEVEX Design (Connect-plug-product) : The DEVEX Cryo Ethanol Extraction System is mounted on two stainless steel skids. The DEVEX Cryo Ethanol Extraction System is supplied completely piped, cabled and can be used directly after interconnection of the two skids and connection to the utilities.

    DEVEX CryoEXS 400
    The DEVEX Cryo Ethanol Extraction System provides the following processes;

  • Solvent Cooling
  • Ethanol Extraction
  • Ethanol Recovery
  • Ethanol Stripping out of cannabis biomass after Ethanol Extraction
  • Decarboxylation

    • Explosion Protection
    Due to the use of ethanol for solvent the equipment is designed to match with hazardous environment conditions Ethanol IIB T3, inside zone 1 / outside zone 2 (ATEX II 2G / ATEX II 3G). For the North American market the system is designed to match the conditions NEMA Class I Division 2 (CID2).
