Freeze Drying

Freeze drying is a gentle form of drying and may be used to preserve foods without changing their appearance or taste. The process also avoids the loss and degradation of volatile compounds and results in a stable product with increased shelf life. As the market leader in laboratory evaporation, BUCHI offers the first laboratory freeze dryer with continuous sublimation and quick-design programming and running of methods. Infinite-Technology™ utilizes two alternately working condensers for continued operation.

buchi-cannabinoid-separation-workflow-step-1691

Cannabinoid Separation

Flash chromatography is a suitable method for the separation of different compounds of cannabis extract from each other. With this technique, it is possible to produce pure cannabinoids like CBD or THC. Flash chromatography can also be used to remove unwanted substances, such as pesticides, from the extract. The resulting products are then concentrated again using a rotary evaporator.
