Simplify to Prosper

Dewax, Decolor & Desolvate System

Automate and simplify the refinement of crude oil from your CO2, ethanol, or multi-solvent extraction system. For hands-free winterization, the Airo™ D-3 can be integrated with the output of a Vitalis CIS or Polaramax™ extraction system.

Dewax, Decolor & Desolvate System + Cosolvent Injection System

Add a module for an integrated Vitalis Cosolvent Injection System (CIS) to improve your extractions and enjoy direct output to the Airo D-3. Compatible with Vitalis PrimeEx™ Q-Series and R-Series CO2 extraction systems.

Dewax, Decolor, Desolvate & Decarb System

Get all the same features of the Airo D-3 plus an additional module for decarbing your extract after the desolvation stage. The Airo D-4 includes an integrated decarboxylation reactor from Beaker & Wrench.

Dewax, Decolor, Desolvate & Decarb System + Cosolvent Injection System

Add a module for an integrated Vitalis Cosolvent Injection System (CIS) to improve your extractions and enjoy direct output to the Airo D-4. Compatible with Vitalis PrimeEx™ Q-Series and R-Series CO2 extraction systems.

Cryo-Ethanol, Filtration & Desolvation System

Cold ethanol enthusiast? Use the Airo™ CFD to automate the chilling of your solvent and the refinement of your extract solution from an external, in-line centrifuge (such as a Vitalis E-30 or similar system from a different manufacturer).

Desolvation System

Minimize your extract’s exposure to heat by adding the Airo™ D-1 to your workflow. Take advantage of the system’s gentle desolvation membranes.

(over 8-16 times faster than a freezer)

Chill up to 125L of crude extract solution in less than 90 minutes, saving more than 10 to 22 hours compared to waiting for a freezer.

(over 3 times faster than standard methods)

Dewax and decolor up to 125L of crude extract solution in less than 4 hours, saving at least 8 hours compared to using filter tables, centrifuges, or similar equipment.

(Starting with homogenized crude extract at room temperature with minimum ratio of 5:1 solvent to extract.)

(removing over 99% of wax in just one pass)

Keep your extract solution under -40°C during dewaxing, avoiding any potential need for repeated winterization.

More lipid removal helps ensure higher-quality end products (like full-spectrum vapes) and better-performing downstream distillation or chromatography.

Maximize the utility of your facility by deploying the Airo™ system within just 55 sq. ft. of floor space. (For an Airo™ D-3 system. Other configurations may be slightly larger.)

Operate the Airo™ system in a non-classified room, eliminating extra costs for special facility requirements.

Lower your energy costs and expedite your cooling times with the integrated flooded CO2 heat exchanger.

Lessen your need for costly upkeep and replacements.

Minimize your labor costs—or repurpose your existing staff—by having a single operator look after the fully integrated dewaxing, decoloring, and desolvation processes. Simply load the Airo™ system through a sealed transfer, hit start, and come back when it’s time for collection.

Reduce costly transfer loss between multiple processes by eliminating manual pours.

Avoid major product loss through automatic spill detection and mitigation. Easily recover and reprocess any spills, which stay contained in an integrated stainless steel tray.

Eliminate spills from manual pours and free up your operator to focus on improving processes elsewhere.

Achieve your desired color with the ability to recirculate your extract solution through the Airo™ system’s decoloring filters. (Say goodbye to the clumsy process of adding carbon filtration to a filter table, with no easy ability to recirculate your solution if more decoloring is required).

Get notified automatically of filter clogs, saving you from lengthy manual diagnostic periods that could otherwise lead to wax getting back into your solution.

Quickly find and change any wax filter that becomes clogged—while your extract solution stays in a cooling loop—eliminating the need for manual agitation.

Prevent cross-contamination with automated internal cleaning of tanks and process lines between batches.

Easily wipe down the Airo™ system’s external housing, made almost entirely of flat stainless steel.

Boost your product uniformity with automated processing that progresses through closed transfers and back-to-back steps based on sensor readings and live feedback.

Improve your traceability and repeatability with automated recording and storage of batch data (versus manual data collection, which can be unreliable).

Easily achieve the clarity and color you want with more effective and efficient dewaxing and decoloring.

Maintain greater consumer confidence in your products by using ethanol as your processing solvent (unlike room-temperature winterization processes that may require highly toxic methanol).
