Infinity has experimented with many technologies which perform cell lysis. One of those is the fascinating vortex tube. It has traditionally used for pressuried air to produce spot cooling and heat, along with separation functions in the oil and gas industry. The vortex converts pressure into rotational energy (over 1,000 g force) which effectively becomes a centrifuge liquids (air, water, oil, etc.). The high g forces can result in cell lysis, and the rotational element can separate resulting extract.

The New Revolution in Processing using Water as the Solvent.
Simple push-button operation and uses only water as the solvent, this amazing system uses technology that was previously only available in the pharmaceutical industry. Process 50-100 pounds per hour, or up to 2,400 pounds (1,200 kg) per day of flower. This system can process an amazing 2.5 acres per day of flower, or up to 876,000 pounds per year (about 900 acres of flower). This system produces a crude oil extract, which is considered a Full Spectrum Oil extraction.

Pro Tips:
The SDR is a continuous feed botanicals crude oil extractor, using spinning disc reactor technology, which is well proven in the food processing and pharmaceuticals industry. The system is used in this application with water as the solvent to produce a full spectrum extraction. With further winterization processing, the resulting full-spectrum-oil is ready for sale as a concentrate.

The Infinity Supercritical CO2 system uses liquid carbon dioxide to extract oils, terpenes, and color from plant cells. This video gives a briefing on how annato seed is extracted.

Pro Tips:
Learning the Supercritical CO2 system requires formal training. After training, we recommend you practice on hops first, then move on to hemp or other botanicals. If you do not follow this time-proven procedure, you most likely will have a negative learning curve and have zero results.

The Infinity Supercritical CO2 system uses baskets for faster loading and unloading of the extraction system. This allows for faster turn-around time and more efficient (cost effective) use of the CO2 extractor. More time processing means more profit potential, since you are processing more botanicals to make more concentrates.

Pro Tips:
Pre-load baskets for fast turn-around time. You can also run without baskets, keeping in mind you have to use a dry vacuum to remove spent botanical input material after the extraction. While it's only a few minutes to clean out, if you run up to seven cycles per day, that can add up to lots of potential processing time.
