Solventless Aerosol Cannabis Extraction Equipment for Full-Spectrum Terpene Preservation

In today’s competitive cannabis industry, producers are constantly searching for methods that maximize yield, maintain quality, and ensure safety. One of the biggest challenges has been preserving the delicate terpene profile of the plant during extraction. Terpenes are highly volatile and easily degraded by heat or harsh solvents, yet they are vital for the aroma, flavor, and therapeutic potential of cannabis products.

The Problem with Traditional Methods

Conventional extraction techniques like CO₂ or ethanol often require high pressures, extreme cold, or post-processing steps such as winterization. These processes can strip or alter terpenes, leaving extracts less aromatic and less true to the original plant. In addition, residual solvents can be a concern for health-conscious consumers.

Why Solventless Aerosol Extraction is Different

Solventless aerosol cannabis extraction equipment, such as PURE5™’s R134a systems, changes the game. Operating at room temperature and low pressure, these systems gently extract cannabinoids and terpenes without degrading them. The process eliminates the need for winterization and results in minimal wax content — typically below 5%, often under 2%.

Preserving the Full-Spectrum Profile

By avoiding extreme processing conditions, PURE5™’s aerosol extraction retains the full spectrum of the plant — not just cannabinoids, but also the unique terpene ratios that define each strain. This creates a product with richer aroma, better flavor, and enhanced entourage effects.

Efficiency and Sustainability

PURE5™’s closed-loop aerosol systems recover approximately 99% of the R134a solvent, making them both eco-friendly and cost-effective. Processing times range from just minutes to about an hour, with extraction efficiencies of 90–98%. This means higher throughput without sacrificing quality.

Scalable Solutions

Whether you’re a boutique lab or a large-scale processor, PURE5™ offers capacities from 10L to 500L HTE. This flexibility allows cannabis businesses to start small and scale up as demand grows — all while maintaining product consistency.

Conclusion

For cannabis producers focused on quality, safety, and sustainability, solventless aerosol cannabis extraction equipment is the future. By preserving terpenes, maintaining cannabinoid integrity, and reducing operational costs, PURE5™ delivers technology that truly honors the plant.
