Extraction & Separation

Our extraction equipment systems have been engineered to maximize processing efficiencies and minimize solvent usage. We can provide a full turnkey extraction system, or augment your current equipment to improve your operations.

A common extraction and separation system consists of two primary components: the extraction vessel and the separation equipment.

Extraction Tanks

Our agitation tanks can be custom built to your requirements, typically ranging from 100G to 500G
Biomass and solvent (ethanol) is transferred into the agitation tank and blended for the desired duration
Jacketed and insulated tank capable of -40°C extraction temperatures
Explosion proof motor, paddle agitator, and recirculation pump ensures a homogeneous blend during extraction
Built in CIP spray ball for cleaning

Filter Press

1 - 100 cubic feet capacity (25 - 1800lbs per batch)
Hydraulic press operates at 4000 psi to compresses plates and seal internal chambers
1 micron filter plated filters full batch is 30 minutes
Nitrogen purged and low-pressure squeeze bladders capable of purge 99%+ of solvent from biomass
-20°C operational temperature
Food grade filter material and stainless sanitary fittings for GMP compliance
