Why Supercritical CO2 Fluid Extraction?
Supercritical CO2 fluid extraction has become one of the most successful clean and green botanical extraction methods in the hemp and cannabis industry.
Capable of heightened efficiency with higher profitability, supercritical fluid extraction has become increasingly popular among extract producers like extraktLAB.
As opposed to other particular extraction solvents like hydrocarbons and ethanol, supercritical fluid extraction solvents like CO2 have higher extraction yields, increased solvation selectivity, improved fractionation and diffusion capabilities, and drastically reduced carbon emissions.
What’s more, CO2 used in supercritical fluid extraction has nearly zero possibilities for chemical denaturant contamination as found in various ethanol extracts. For these reasons, supercritical CO2 is the ideal solvent used for as supercritical fluid extraction method in this industry.
Supercritical CO2 Extraction
Supercritical CO2 is used to extract many different kinds of biomass. The most famous and successful industrial process for supercritical CO2 extraction is the coffee decaffeination process. However there are many other essential oil extracts that are used in the supplements industry that utilize CO2 extraction. Hops is a good example. Hops are used to brew beer and add flavor to beer. CO2 traction is used to extract the essential bitter flavor from the house so that the flavors can be blended and preserved.
What is the labor difference between ethanol extraction vs. supercritical CO2 extraction?
The direct labor between the two techniques is essentially the same. However different configurations of equipment and different workflows can improve labor content and headcount.
The concept of value-added Labor in this instance is very important. Value added labor is the labor content that is spent by the laborer on direct conversion of the product into something the customer values. In reality most operations have a very low value-added labor in a very high overhead component to direct labor. We suggest the use of lean techniques and Value Stream mapping to improve workflow, reduce inventory, and by extension reduce the headcount required to produce a unit.
