Introduction of New Technology stainless steel co2 oil extraction machine
CO2 is a unique solvent because it has the ability to change its solvency power simply by adjusting the temperature and pressure of the CO2 during the extraction. When the pressure and temperature of the CO2 are above 1083psi and 88F, the CO2 is considered “supercritical”. If the temperature is dropped below 88F the CO2 changes to a liquid and referred to as “subcritical”. Both supercritical CO2 and subcritical CO2 act like a solvent and can extract oil from plant materials. When the pressure of the CO2 is decreased (typically to below 600psi) it converts to a gas and loses its ability to hold oils in solution and separates the extracted oil from the now gaseous CO2.
Application of New Technology stainless steel co2 oil extraction machine
Botanical oil extractions for natural flavorings: coffee, vanilla, spices
Essential oil extractions for fragrance and aroma: fruits, nuts, coffee, tea
Botanical oil extractions for medicinal use: cannabis, hemp oil concentrates.Yields will vary based on the available oil content in the plant. Typical yields for cannabis are 8-10%, but can be as low as 4~5% for low quality material (fan leaves) and as high as 12~15% for high quality material (flower).
Botanical oil extractions for tobacco ~used in e-cigarettes
Botanical oil extractions for nutraceuticals: kava, saw palmetto, omega 3 oils
Oil extractions for alternative energy applications: algae, switchgrass
Critical point drying for MicroElectroMechanical System (MEMS) processing
Supercritical cleaning for critical devices
Why use CO2?
1. CO2 is nontoxic and is Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food products. Our bodies produce it when we breathe, and it is commonly used in carbonated beverages. With CO2 as a solvent for oil extraction, no toxins, heavy metals or hydrocarbon materials come in contact with the extracted oils.
2. CO2 is “solvent free”. It has a very low boiling temperature and wants to be a gas a room temperature, thus it naturally separates from the extracted oil the same way a soda goes “flat”. The spent plant material is also free of residual solvents so it can be re-used as well.
3. CO2 is non-flammable. Flammable solvents must be processed in a NEMA Class 1, Division 1, 2 or 3 (explosion proof) environment. CO2 is not flammable and does not require costly explosion proof facilities.
4. CO2 is “cold”. Botanical oil extractions can be done at temperatures that are native to the botanical material, minimizing thermal degradation of the plant material and the extracted oil.
5. CO2 is “tunable”. the solvency power of CO2 can be adjusted simply by increasing or decreasing pressures and/or temperatures. The ability of the CO2 to selectively extract affords the ability to create unique extractions that have varying levels of desirable oils and waxes (see below). Less desirable plant constituents, like chlorophyl, can also be “de-selected”.
6. CO2 is inexpensive. CO2 is readily available and widely used throughout several industries. In addition, Apeks’ production CO2 oil extraction systems recirculate and subsequently recover 95% of the CO2 used in each extraction.
7. CO2 is environmentally friendly. Industrial CO2 for extractions comes from byproducts – primarily hydrogen and ammonia manufacturing and fermentation for ethanol. CO2 used for extractions does not contribute to the overall atmospheric CO2 levels.
