Disclosed herein is a method for continuously preparing crystalline cannabinoid particles. The method includes preparing a cannabinoid-rich solution that comprises a first cannabinoid and inducing the cannabinoid-rich solution to a supersaturated state in which the first cannabinoid has a supersaturated concentration that is greater than a corresponding saturation concentration of the first cannabinoid. The method includes flowing the cannabinoid-rich solution into a continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) in a continuous manner, mixing the cannabinoid-rich solution under turbulent mixing conditions to form a plurality of crystalline cannabinoid particles and a cannabinoid-depleted solution within the CSTR, and discharging the plurality of crystalline cannabinoid particles and the cannabinoid-depleted solution from the CSTR in a continuous manner to provide a flow rate through the CSTR. The method includes separating crystalline cannabinoid particles from the plurality of crystalline cannabinoid particles and the cannabinoid-depleted solution in a continuous manner.

A novel Salt Repellent Technique is presented to remove all inorganic salts from seawater to get potable water. The repellent additives recommended throws out all salts of sodium, magnesium, calcium, potassium and the like ions from seawater and paves way to get salt free potable water. The conventional washing of ice crystals is completely avoided due to the presence of additives. This technique helps to remove last traces of salts from seawater and analogous waters, without undertaking the conventional washing process. The new salt repellent process assures of high water recovery, ease of operation, lesser pollution, smaller plants, simpler machinery and technology, lower energy cost, nil or lesser pre-treatment and recovery of valuable by-products. To reduce the TDS still lower, it is recommended to have a simplified reverse osmosis unit in addition, as a post-operative arrangement.

A method for forming, or crystallising, clathrates hydrates of a host molecule in a liquid including water includes the following consecutive steps: cooling the liquid to a temperature no higher than the crystallisation temperature of the clathrates hydrates; and placing the cooled liquid in contact with host molecules that are capable of forming clathrates hydrates and are adsorbed on a solid support that has a large specific surface area and is made of a hydrophobic and apolar material, whereby the host molecules are desorbed from the solid support that has a large specific surface area and is made of a hydrophobic and apolar material, and react with the water of the liquid in order to provide a liquid containing clathrates hydrates and the solid support.

The present invention relates to aseptic suspensions, physically stable and injectable through a 25G needle or thinner, comprising crystalline, non-micronized 3-beta-hydroxy-5-alpha-pregnan-20-one particles, a mixture of acylglycerols and cholesterol, processes for preparing crystalline, non-micronized, 3-beta-hydroxy-5-alpha-pregnan-20-one suitable for such suspensions, as well as methods for manufacturing such suspensions.

A method of separating material, such as foam, sludge, oil or grease, at a fluid's surface, by applying acoustic pressure shock waves to the material and the fluid's surface such that acoustic pressure shock waves are propagated in liquid medium of the fluid and in gas medium above the fluid surface.

A method of activating and dewatering sludge through application of acoustic pressure shock waves to wastewater.

Acoustic pressure shock waves are applied to a membrane in a fluid to prevent attachment of or dislodge biological or solid matter for membrane cleaning or desalination with a membrane.

A method for purifying methacrylic acid, including mixing raw material methacrylic acid and methanol; precipitating a crystal of methacrylic acid from the mixed solution; and separating the crystal and mother liquor, wherein the raw material methacrylic acid and methanol are mixed so that a concentration of methanol in the mixed liquid is 3.0 to 3.75% by mass, and the crystal of methacrylic acid is precipitated from the mixed solution in a cooling crystallization vessel.

A method of generating an oligosaccharide encapsulated cannabidiol (CBD) formulation includes forming a cannabidiol ethanol mixture comprising ethanol and cannabidiol, forming an oligosaccharide CBD slurry by mixing the oligosaccharide with the cannabidiol ethanol mixture. The slurry is heated and mixed in a pressurized chamber to form a colloidal mixture, which is distributed into a tray as a layer. A cover is added to the tray to form an evaporation vessel, which is heated in a heating chamber. A rapid cooling process is performed on the colloidal mixture layer by removing the cover and spraying pulverized dry ice on the layer. The rapid cooling process is repeated until crystal formation is detected within the layer, the crystals including oligosaccharide encapsulated cannabidiol. An oligosaccharide encapsulated cannabidiol formulation includes cannabidiol and at least one oligosaccharide in a ratio in the range between about 1000:1 to 2200:1 (w/w) of CBD.
