A rotary evaporator for accurately and quantitatively recovering multiple solvents or concentrating multiple samples at once is provided. At least two distillation flasks are included. The distillation flasks are connected in sequence and rotated along the same axis. A bracket is disposed at the lower part between the distillation flasks for support. Instead of one rotation axis, at least two axes are included. Each rotation axis is provided with at least one distillation flask. The number of condensers and the number of collecting flasks increase correspondingly with the number of distillation flasks. If the number of distillation flasks on one rotation axis is greater than 1, a connector is disposed between the condenser and a transmitter. The collecting flask can be changed into a collector with the function of accurately quantitating and discharging distillates. Each distillation flask may be connected to a concentrated liquid quantitative assembly.

A cleaning and distillation apparatus with a clean fluid tank, a cleaning tank, a recirculating fluid tank located below the cleaning tank, a removable separator panel partitioning the clean fluid tank from the recirculating fluid tank, a distillator and an outlet for dispensing fluid is provided. Also provided is a cleaning apparatus, without the distillator, the cleaning apparatus having a cleaning tank, a recirculating fluid tank located below the cleaning tank, a removable separator panel partitioning the recirculating fluid tank from the cleaning tank, and a fluid dispenser.

A controlled decarboxylation of cannabinoids results in a high yield of decarboxylated forms of cannabinoids and also preserves the integrity of volatile components such as terpenoids and as well as fats and lipids that are present in the cannabis extract. The inventive apparatus allows the different components in the cannabis plant extract to be kept in the same reaction mixture during the decarboxylation process, while allowing the decarboxylation process to proceed without breakdown of the more volatile components of the mixture by use of a very low temperature condenser. The invention also relates to a method for controlled decarboxylation of cannabinoids using the novel apparatus.

A system for preparing nanoscale zero-valent iron by reverse filtration in a non-open inert atmosphere is provided including an inert gas bottle, a gas monitoring and buffering device, a main reaction device configured as a three-necked flask, a condensing device including a condenser tube and a cold source, a waste liquid collecting device configured as a waste liquid collecting bottle, a liquid sealing device including a second liquid sealing bottle connected with the waste liquid collecting bottle through a first connecting-pipe, and an extraction pressure adjusting device including a third triple valve and a vacuum pump, all of which are connected by pipelines in sequence. Three necks of the three-necked flask are respectively provided with a first triple valve, a single-hole rubber plug pierced with a liquid-taking pipe, and a second triple valve. The second liquid sealing bottle is connected with the third triple valve.

Extraction devices and related methods are disclosed. Extraction devices disclosed may include a hopper, a piston, and an evaporation chamber. The hopper may be filled with a plant material and a solvent. The piston may be removably housed within the hopper so as to form a hermetic seal with the hopper. Once a solvent and extract mixture is formed within the hopper, a valve in the bottom of the hopper may be opened to allow the solvent and extract mixture to flow into the evaporation chamber via gravity. The remaining plant material may be compressed by the piston to remove any remaining solvent and extract mixture. The solvent may be evaporated in the evaporation chamber leaving a purified plant extract. Various types of plant materials may be used within the hopper. Various types of solvents may be used as well, including heptane and hexane.

A driving mechanism includes a condensing coil and a fan set above a body of a distilled water dispenser. The condensing coil has multiple layers of spiral coil formed by winding a stainless steel tube in a spiral on each of different horizontal planes. The stainless steel tube has one end thereof terminating in a steam inlet port and connected to an inner tank of the body, and an opposite end thereof terminating in a distilled water outlet port. The fan is used to drive air to the condensing coil so that the steam in the stainless steel tube is cooled and condensed into distilled water. This can achieve the purpose of improving the condensation efficiency, shortening the time required to generate distilled water, reducing the temperature of the distilled water outlet, and avoiding the use of radiating fins.

An arrangement for closing a container, in particular a flask, for determining evaporation properties of a liquid in the flask according to at least one standardized test. The arrangement has at least one temperature measurement system, a sensor, a closing element adapted for contacting a surface of an opening in the container for closing the container and having a through-opening through which a portion of the temperature measurement sensor is guided such that a lower end of the sensor is arranged within the container. The arrangement further includes a mechanism for adjusting a position of the lower end of the sensor along a longitudinal direction of the temperature measurement sensor.

Methods and systems involving thermal desorption of an oily slurry are provided. In some embodiments, such systems include a desorption vessel including an inner chamber; a heating unit disposed adjacent to the desorption vessel configured to heat a slurry including solids and oil disposed in the inner chamber of the desorption vessel; and a plurality of vapor outlets in fluid communication with the inner chamber of the desorption vessel, wherein each vapor outlet is in fluid communication with a condenser or an eductor for condensing vapors generated by heating the slurry.
