The plant Kingdom is a rich resource for food. Plants are also a source of compounds used as medicines. This podcast focuses on interviewing experts in the extraction of plants. Extraction processes are critical for food scientists, natural products chemists, advancing pharmacognosy and ethnobotany, and chemical engineers and materials scientists. These 30-minute podcasts will interview people from around the world focused on new technology, new research, and new perspectives.
A casual conversation about cannabis compounds and the recent escalation of synthetic compounds with Dr. Steven Bennett. Dr. Bennett has been a strong technical advocate of natural products and medicines. He discusses how he became an advocate because of his academic curiosity and then filling the gaps needed in Colorado. Dr. Bennett has joined me on many panels at cannabis forums. He is currently working at his company Prescott Scientific in Chicago. Steven P. Bennett, Ph.D. Founder and Chief Scientific Officer 303.815.8385 prescottlogictechnologies.com
Dr. John MacKay develops a way to visualize the volatility of the terpenes compared to the cannabinoids using simple things you probably ready have in the house. You might have to purchase another pen at a local store and use or borrow one. He uses the same materials to demonstrate decarboxylation by heat.
Another solventless extraction system for cannabis processing. I was able to catch up with Raechel and Steve Sherwood to talk about the Loxley Systems. The system could do a minimum of 750 lbs and up to 100,000 lbs per day. They will discuss how they pivoted to smaller models that can be used on the benchtop and in batch and continuous mode. How they came into the business is fascinating to me, and the five years of development to May 2022. steve@goloxley.com Raechel Sherwood Co-Founder & CEO Loxley Systems Solventless Extraction 720-979-8487 raechel@goloxley.com | https://www.goloxley.com/ (GoLoxley.com) Go Solventless, Go Loxley.
Josh Rutherford is the co-founder of Pure Pressure, the provider of innovative products for solventless extraction. He was recently named the VP of Corporate Development of Agrify, Inc. We will discuss the increasing interest in solventless extraction of cannabis. After graduating from the University of Colorada, Boulder, Josh applied his understanding to co-found Pure Pressure to develop a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) of a possible system that caught the attention of other like-minded people. He'll talk about the humble beginning to the acquisition by Agrify has been an incredible journey. Josh Rutherford VP Corporate Development Email: Josh@gopurepressure.com
A casual conversation about analytical testing in the cannabis market with Ms. Alex Harris, a natural products advocate from California. Alex discusses how she became an advocate because of her health challenges her constant drive for learning and understanding all phases of the processes of Technology. Alex is a natural teacher who has podcasts and videos that you can learn from. She has constantly expanded her experiences. She is currently working with Supercritical Fluid Extraction and Chromatography. From simple extraction to in-line decolorization to chiral separation of the four enantiomers of THC and CBD.
