A neutralization/water separation tank for an esterified product including: a neutralization part in which a crude product mixture containing alcohol and an ester compound, a neutralizing agent, and water are put to produce a neutralized mixture; a water separation part which divides the neutralized mixture into a floating layer and an aqueous layer; a first partition wall which extends upward from a bottom surface to provide an upper passage and by which the neutralization part and the water separation part are partitioned; and a second partition wall which extends downward from a ceiling to provide a lower passage, wherein the water separation part includes: a first water separation part into which the neutralized mixture is introduced from the neutralization part through the upper passage; and a second water separation part into which the neutralized mixture is introduced from the first water separation part through the lower passage, wherein the first water separation part and the second water separation part are partitioned by the second partition wall.

Processes and systems for the recovery of solvents from a feedstock are provided, as well as processes and systems for the recovery of target botanical compounds. The processes and systems include a heated mixing device, in which a feedstock can be simultaneously mixed and heated to vaporize and release a solvent or botanical compound from the feedstock. The vaporized solvent or botanical compound can be condensed and collected as recovered solvent or a recovered botanical compound,

The present application provides a low-temperature process to reduce S—S and/or S—H bonds in organic compounds, including sulfur-cured elastomers, which for example, permits the de-crosslinking of the elastomer and recovery of organic polymers from inorganic constituents.

Purified and modified Cannabis products and methods for producing the same. The purified Cannabis product comprises substantially no volatile organic compounds while retaining Total Potential cannabinoid content. The modified Cannabis product comprises a purified Cannabis product modified by at least one added volatile unsaturated hydrocarbon. The modified Cannabis product is formed by extracting a volatile organic compound from a Cannabis raw material to form a purified Cannabis product, and then adding the at least one volatile unsaturated hydrocarbon to the purified Cannabis product to form the modified Cannabis product and cause an enhanced user experience during combustion and inhalation of the modified Cannabis product.

A process for the preparation of bio-based malonic acid and crystalline calcium malonate is provided. The calcium malonate is highly pure and provides a source of malonic acid made from a renewable carbon source rather than existing processes which rely on the use of petroleum-based products. The calcium malonate provides an improved source of malonic acid, which is important to many industrial processes.
