40.EX Closed-Loop Ethanol Extraction System

Streamlined Ethanol Extraction in Motion

The 40.EX is a centrifuge-based ethanol extraction system designed to process cannabis and hemp biomass in a consistent, repeatable way. It uses chilled ethanol to wash over the plant material while spinning, allowing cannabinoids to be separated efficiently without long soak times. This approach is commonly used in operations that need to balance product quality with higher throughput, as the shorter contact time helps limit unwanted compounds while still extracting the desired material.

The system runs in a closed-loop environment, meaning the ethanol is contained and reused throughout the process. This supports both safety and solvent management, especially in facilities running multiple cycles per day. The 40.EX is capable of handling 40-pound batches in roughly 15 to 20 minutes, making it a practical option for scaling production without significantly increasing labor demands.

In day-to-day use, the system is designed to be straightforward to operate, with automated controls and data tracking to help maintain consistency from run to run. It is typically integrated with filtration and solvent recovery equipment, allowing it to fit into a more complete processing workflow rather than functioning as a standalone unit.
