CO2 & Multi-Solvent Extraction Systems

Polaramax™ Hero

Run in mono solvent mode (CO2) or multi-solvent mode (CO2 plus a small amount of cosolvent such as ethanol). Easily switch back and forth as your needs require.

These automated systems combine the many benefits of CO2 (like purity, tunability, and consistency) with the optional added efficacy of cosolvent injection (like more throughput and selectivity).

You get greater effectiveness from your subcritical or supercritical fluid extraction (SFE)—and more possibilities.

Execute your current vision. And prepare for change with equipment that’s flexible enough to help you pivot when unexpected consumer preferences push you to create new or different products.

 Need a reliable system in as few as 12 weeks? Check out Vitalis PrimeEx™ Q-Series and R-Series CO2 extraction systems—in stock now.

 

  • Extract polar and non-polar compounds with a single closed-loop system.

  • Maximize the return on your capital investment by minimizing your operating expenses.

  • Eliminate bottlenecks or speed up refinement by producing crude oils that consist of less than 1% fats and waxes.

  • Make cleaner, more consistent, higher-value products—at scale—by leaving behind outdated assumptions about supercritical CO2.

Add a Vitalis Airo™ D-3 system for rapid, continuous, hands-free winterization. 

Get automated in-line dewaxing, decoloring, and desolvation in one system with touchscreen operation.

Benefits of Vitalis Supercritical CO2 Extraction Technology

  • Cleaner Extracts

    Since it evaporates quickly and naturally, CO2 (by itself) doesn’t leave residual solvent in your extract. That’s an easy selling point for health-conscious consumers. And it can make regulatory compliance less of a hurdle.

  • Ultimate Flexibility

    Extract more compounds from the same feed material. Use subcritical CO2 and cold separation to pull out delicate molecules like terpenes without degradation. Use supercritical CO2 to extract tougher compounds that require higher temperatures and pressures.

  • Lower Energy Costs

    With integrated refrigeration and heat recovery, you can reduce your electricity consumption substantially. This can diminish the need for third-party chilling and heating equipment that tends to be costly and less efficient.

  • Reduced Environmental Impact

    Achieve a lower carbon footprint through closed-loop CO2 extraction. The recovery and recycling of CO2 is standard on every oil extraction system from Vitalis. Your CO2 is continuously cleaned and purified as part of the process.

Added Benefits of Vitalis Cosolvent Injection Technology

  • More Throughput

    Achieve much faster run-times and up to 233% greater throughput each day than by using CO2 alone.* All without sacrificing the quality you expect.

  • Lower Operating Costs

    Cut your recurring solvent and energy use by substantial amounts so that you lower your cost of producing each gram of finished product.

  • Expanded Selectivity

    Easily extract compounds that could otherwise be a challenge with CO2 alone. Pull out the polar and non-polar substances you need for your products.

  • Easy Integration

    Get up and running without making a separate space to meet safety regulations. Unlike most solvent systems, these solutions don’t require a special room.

Talk to Me About Cosolvent Injection

* Throughput numbers are based on multiple extractions in a 24-hour cycle, specific potency and recovery figures, and a specific mill size. Additional factors, including SOPs (standard operating procedures) and system configuration, will also contribute to system performance.

 

No Excuses Necessary

  • Reliable

    Higher uptime means higher profits. With a solution from Vitalis, you can run near-continuous operations and know we’ve got your back if you need service or support.

  • Trusted

    Relationships are better than transactions. Our solutions are trusted because we provide unbiased guidance, collaboration, and hard-earned expertise, not just equipment.

  • Compliant

    Regulations are only going one way: Up. Vitalis extraction solutions can help you meet current and future requirements, including Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).

  • Scalable

    Growth requires the capability to grow. Our modular extraction technology is built to scale with you, allowing you to start small and expand easily as your business grows.
