Floating Gold: The Most Valuable Fragrance Ingredient
Perfume is expensive. But have you ever wondered what the most expensive fragrance ingredient is, all the way at the high end of the spectrum?
Aerogels History
Aerogels are ultra low density wonder materials, the lightest solids on the earth. They could be the key to unlocking the future – NASA says

https://youtu.be/P691cIAMBHA Canisters are fast, easy, clean, and essential for any GMP Extraction facility. They provide even CO2 flow through the material, preventing clogs. Canisters also
Hightech’s Triple Extractor Configuration Provides Maximum Flexibility & Maximizes Throughput
The triple extractor configuration is the most flexible configuration in an SCF system. The machine’s flexibility is enhanced by our automation-by-recipe process. It can

Robotic Lid Removal
Operator safety is a paramount concern! Lids can be very heavy and difficult to manage. In keeping with firm EU safety standards, Hightech Extracts equips all extractor vessels over 100 Liters with robotic lid handling included.
Our Pumps are Sized for Optimal Performance
Pump Flow: The perfect sizing was done after the analysis of a million dozed processes data tag and efficiency evaluation. You can see the result of our efforts in this surface plot. In our systems we found the best combination between Process Pressure, CO2 Flow / Extractor Volume ratio and Efficiency of the process.
Double Extractors for Semi-Continuous Extraction
The double extractor system gives you a great advantage: semi-continuous extraction. This kind of extraction means that the process never stops. Semi-continuous extraction reduces downtime and bacterial contamination in the system.
Our Cyclonic Separator Uses Centrifugal Force
The cyclonic separator is different compared to the gravimetric separator — while S1 works by gravity force, S2 works by centrifugal force. The fluid moves very quickly, creating a vortex inside the vessel. The fluid continues to spin and the particles of extract begin to separate moving toward the walls of the separator, sliding to bottom.
How Condensers Work to Recirculate CO2
The condenser is essential in CO2 recirculation. The condenser is a piece of apparatus or equipment that can be used to condense, or change the physical state of a substance, from its gaseous to its liquid state. We use a double-pipe configuration in small systems (up to 48-liter) and a shell and pipe configuration for industrial systems.
