supercritical co2 extractor-germany

Biomass Preparation : The extraction process begins with careful preparation of the raw cannabis biomass. To ensure optimal efficiency, the plant material is dried to a specific moisture content, then milled into uniform particle sizes. This improves consistency in the extraction process and increases surface area exposure for the CO₂ to interact with.

Supercritical CO₂ Extraction : This enables CO₂ to penetrate deeply into the cannabis material like a gas, while dissolving cannabinoids and terpenes like a liquid. Supercritical CO₂ selectively targets valuable compounds such as THC, CBD, and a wide range of terpenes, without extracting unwanted elements like chlorophyll, lipids, or waxes. Buffalo Extraction Systems' supercritical CO₂ extraction machines allow precise control over pressure, temperature, and flow rate to tailor the extraction process according to the specific strain and desired cannabinoid profile be it for full-spectrum oil, isolate production, or medical-grade extracts.

Separation and Collection :Once the cannabinoids and terpenes have been dissolved, the CO₂-rich mixture flows into separator vessels, where the pressure is gradually reduced. As the pressure drops, the solvency power of CO₂ diminishes, causing the extracted compounds to precipitate out of the solution. In this phase, the THC- or CBD-rich oil is separated from the gaseous CO₂. The oil is collected in food- and pharma-grade containers for further refinement or formulation, while the gaseous CO₂ continues to the next stage.

CO₂ Recycling : A major advantage of working with Buffalo Extraction Systems is their commitment to sustainability critical for cannabis producers in Germany, where environmental regulations and green energy policies are among the most advanced in Europe. Their CO₂ extraction machines use a closed-loop CO₂ extraction system, meaning the gas is never released into the atmosphere. Instead, the used CO₂ is routed through a series of purification stages, including condensers and filters, where it is re-pressurized and cooled, making it suitable for reuse in the next extraction cycle.
