A system for purifying cannabis miscella is provided comprising a feed tank enabled to store the miscealla derived from cannabis extraction, a plurality of optical sensor modules, at least one valve, an ultrafiltration membrane module; and at least one pump. Wherein a closed system enabled to maintain a positive or negative pressure created by the at least one pump, enabling moving a flow of the miscealla through the system, one optical sensor is positioned upstream and downstream from the ultrafiltration membrane, the at least one valve is positioned between ultrafiltration membrane and an outlet, and a level of opening the valve creates different levels of back pressure based on readings from the optical sensors.

The present invention relates to a method for separating metal ions from a liquid, which method comprises contacting liquid comprising metal ions with non-functionalized cellulose, adsorbing the metal ions to the cellulose, and separating the liquid from the cellulose, wherein the liquid is an essential oil.

A two stage system for extraction of oil from whole citrus fruit is provided. The first stage is known in the art and includes a first plurality of toothed rollers which convey citrus as the teeth penetrate and rupture oil glands. The oil passes into a first water pan. A novel second stage uses a second plurality of toothed rollers to continue the penetration and rupturing of oil glands. The second plurality of rollers are positioned in an isolated second pan to partially submerge the citrus. A middle phase liquor with extremely low oil concentration is transferred into said second pan to initiate desorption of oil from the citrus. The desorption technique in one embodiment increases yield by 4% or more. This technique is expected to increase yield even more as the recovery by the first stage is reduced.

Compositions which are fragrant and contain at least a member set culled from a library of compositions, each being comprised of sub-combinations of selected terpenes. Fragrances that mimic that of various states of organic and synthetic aromatics including products, processes and those from non-combusted plant products, among other things, uniquitous products, processes, medicinals, and related moieties leverage databases of all known terpene groupings are offered for consideration, and have been provided, according to the instant teachings.

Methods and systems for extracting additional beneficial lipid-soluble heavy compounds from plant material in an environmentally sustainable manner. A method includes preparing a solution that includes a solvent comprising an essential oil and further includes a solute comprising a plant material. The method includes extracting one or more compounds from the plant material using the essential oil as part of the solvent.

A method for modifying the composition of essential oils to be used as such or as ingredients for flavour and fragrance formulations, the process using carbon dioxide and suitable solvents in combination with specific supports; Flavours and fragrances containing ingredients produced by the method and applications using the flavours and fragrances.

The invention relates to an adsorption system (10) for accumulating flavoring substances, comprising at least one working chamber (12) in which at least one sorption agent is provided as a stationary phase and can be subjected to a flavoring substance-containing fluid which can be conducted through the working chamber as a mobile phase for attaching flavoring substances, wherein the flavoring substance-containing fluid is a food item from the group of beer-containing staple and/or luxury food items, beer wort, hops, hop extract, malt water, malt beer, malt wort and brewery-specific ingredients and products and/or is obtained by means of a dealcoholizing device from an ethanol-containing food item from the group of beer-containing staple and/or luxury food items, wherein a ratio of an average cross-sectional thickness to the total length of the at least one working chamber (12) is at most 0.3. The invention also relates to a method for operating such an adsorption system (10), a flavoring substance concentrate and a deflavored permeate which can be and/or are obtained by means of such an adsorption system (10) and/or by means of such a method from a flavoring substance-containing fluid, as well as to a beer which can be or is obtained by mixing an at least partially dealcoholized and/or fermentation-halted beer having such a flavoring substance concentrate.
