Filtration skid for ethanol extraction of cannabis and hemp oil

Enhance the clarity and color of your ethanol-extracted oils with our advanced filtration skid, designed to optimize post-processing by efficiently removing unwanted particulates, pigments, and lipids. Perfect for producers aiming for superior purity and flawless tinctures.

Filters and Clarifies Ethanol Extracts

The Filtration Skid for Ethanol Extraction from Delta Separations is engineered to elevate your production line by ensuring unparalleled clarity in cannabis and hemp oil extractions. This skid utilizes a four-stage filtration process, effectively removing particulates, pigments like carotenoids and chlorophyll, and lipids from ethanol extracts. Designed for both batch and continuous operations, it integrates seamlessly within existing processes to produce THC tinctures, CBD tinctures, and other plant-based liquid supplements.

The system optimizes efficiency through T-316L stainless steel housings and piping, complemented by an air-driven pump that regulates flow rates between 0-15 GPM with precision control up to 60 PSI. This filtration skid, equipped with a sight glass, allows real-time monitoring of color changes and clarity, enhancing operational accuracy.

With capabilities spanning pre-filtration, dewaxing, clarification, decolorization, and fine particulate removal, it caters specifically to cannabis and hemp processing industries. Optional features include a stainless steel jacket for thermal control and an explosion-proof electric motor compliant with C1D1 standards, ensuring safety in volatile environments. Designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, the system eliminates the clutter of hoses, promoting safer workspaces. Delta Separations provides full engineering support, offering customization to meet unique production requirements, making this skid an indispensable asset for high-quality ethanol extraction.
