Pharmaceutical throughput water extractor

@mj_martini

I employ a plethora of aggressive anti-water tactics throughout the process. lol

anything along the lines of these aggressive anti-water tactics?

@Photon_noir

The glass should be placed under vacuum on a Schlenck manifold, and heated with a torch to burn off the internal monolayer of water chemisorbed (hydrating) the glassware. Then the Schlenck should be used to fill the flask with dry N2. After fire drying, perform chemical operations in a desiccated glove box in case of small leaks.

@MagisterChemist
So a cavitation extraction in ph 13.6 water
Then a run treu a RO what you think ?

[MagisterChemist]

Should work great, if an RO with adequate pH resistance is used (they do exist).

[MagisterChemist]

I should say though, that you’re liable to extract all sorts of impurities in the process. Saponified fats… degradation and hydrolysis of the starches… Perhaps even mixed isomerizations and reactions of deprotonated phenol on cbd with functional groups of other molecules. I’d look towards several stages of cleanup before we even get to RO.

Agree it s deffenatly inferior to solvent extractions but might be feasable for those that are not allowed to use solvents
Keeping the noids dissolved in water is not an easy chalabge

[MagisterChemist]

Nor is caustic water pleasant to work with in such great quantities… i’d rather have solvent spilled on me any day.
