Vacuum for Purge Ovens

By selecting the right vacuum pump, you can dial in the right combination of temperature and pressure for your oven!

Vacuum Purge Steps in Extraction Processes

Vacuum purge following hydrocarbon extraction

Following hydrocarbon extraction, which extracts cannabinoids and terpenes from plant matter, solvents are boiled off. This process of removing solvents is typically done in a purge oven and requires a vacuum source. Selecting a vacuum pump with the right combination of pressure and flow rate will minimize process times and help maintain the integrity of the cannabinoids and terpenes.

Vacuum purge to eliminate residual solvent and water

Purge ovens are also used to remove residual water and solvents from concentrated extract. Ensuring a vacuum pump that provides deep vacuum is critical so only moderate temperature is needed to prevent the oil from thermally degrading. As solvents are involved, selecting a vacuum pump with strong chemical resistance is essential for long-term reliability.
