Carbon Chemistry ZeoClear™ Y  ZeoClear™ Y is a granular attapulgite which has been thermally activated to remove impurities and maximize adsorption capabilities. An effect media for color remediation and general product improvement with high contaminant absorptivity. Key Features: Micron Size 250-595um Attapulgite granular media, alkaline medium Easy handling, fast flow, color improvement General product improvement with high contaminant absorptivity Color Remediation In-Line Filtration Hot Scrub Recirculate Granular Media FAQ: How do I use granular media? Zeolite adsorbents can be used inline during extraction with LPG solvents or in a hot scrub with non-polar solvents of higher BP like Heptane Is this a replacement for powders? The answer depends on what your processing goals are e.g. color removal, pesticide remediation, etc. Each adsorbent for filtration media will have its own unique set of properties including pH, pore size, polarity, surface area that make certain adsorbents more suitable to certain uses. Can I mix granular media and powders? Yes, you can either mix powders with granular media or place the granular media on top a bed of powdered media. This will however result in a more restricted flow which will require additional pressure to pass your solution through your filter cake. Do I need to bake the media? Media does not need to be baked prior to use but can be only superficial water will be removed which may improve performance. To remove superficial moisture, bake for 8hrs at 200C (392F) How do I know how much media to use? This will depend on a few variables such as the amount of your starting material, the age of your starting material, and desired color of your final product.  How does the media need to be stored? before and after use. Before use; Keep container tightly closed and dry; store in a cool place. After use; Store in a well-ventilated area, this media is saturated with flammable/explosive solvent and can self-ignite if not not handled properly. Is the media safe to handle without PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)? Breathing must be protected when large quantities are decanted without local exhaust ventilation. When workers face exposure to dust exceeding the occupational exposure limits they must use appropriate certified respirators. Wear a NIOSH-certified (or equivalent) particulate respirator. What micron size filters are required? / The media is larger but are there fines? The media might be large but there are fine dust particles (about 5 million per lb.) that can get carried away in your solution and require separation. We suggest stacking a 5-micron filter on top of a 1-micron filter which will help keep your flow slow as well as filtering out any fine dust particles. The media didn't work, what did I do wrong? There is an exceptionally good chance you did not restrict your solvent flow enough. Try again with a much slower flow through your filter. Another variable you might consider adjusting is solvent temperature. Colder solvent will pull less lipids and waxes which can impede the efficiency of the adsorbent.   Note:  Bulk Bags and Bulk sizes are non-stocked items and will be ordered as needed and carry a several week lead time and require a forklift or pallet jack

CRY™ FILTER MEDIA FOR BHO EXTRACTION (NON-REACTIVE) CRY™ is a more aggressive variant of our flagship CRX™, but with the same high flow, controllable process. CRY™ is slightly more selective, with about 1.5X the embedded silica content compared to CRX™. This allows CRY™ to filter a wider range of compounds, targeting heavy metals specifically. It is the perfect scrub for nug run, due to its ability to handle higher moisture content biomass. CRY™ also shines when processing high chlorophyll content material like aged-out biomass. Its increased silica content not only boosts the filtration range but also enhances the overall extraction quality. If you are not quite sure if one would work better for your process, try a blend. Both CRX™ and CRY™ work synergistically, and many extractors blend them together at specific blend ratios, fine-tuning their cannabis remediation processes. Customizing the blend ratio according to your specific needs allows you to exploit the full potential of these filtration powerhouses. Need to know how to do it?

ACTIVATED ALUMINA FOR BHO & ETHANOL EXTRACTION Activated Alumina is a porous form of aluminum oxide that has a wide variety of uses, but is predominantly used as a winterization filtration aid due to its ability to remove moisture from extracted biomass. It is a ready-to-use, highly specialized, pH-neutral filtration aid for extract oil filtration. Being non-toxic, it presents a reliable solution for purifying extracts. Activated Alumina plays a significant role in enhancing the purity and quality of extract oil. It can attract and hold various impurities, ranging from saponins and phospholipids to various plant surfactants that can affect the quality, flavor, and efficacy of the final extract product. Activated Alumina possesses a high surface-area-to-weight ratio because of its porosity, making it extremely effective at removing contaminants, particularly in high-flow environments. When paired with other premium filter media, especially CRAC™, Activated Alumina acts as a safety net, catching any leftover contaminants that may have bypassed lower-scrub applications. Despite its impressive purification abilities, Activated Alumina does not interfere with the cannabinoids and terpenes present in extract oil. This means that while effectively eliminating unwanted impurities, it simultaneously ensures high-level terpene and cannabinoid retention. This ability to retain these essential components preserves the aroma, flavor, and potential therapeutic effects of extract oil. Packaged in: 1.5 kg pouch, 10 kg bucket, and 100 kg drum.

CRY™ MEDIUM FLOW (CRY-M™) FILTER MEDIA FOR BHO EXTRACTION (NON-REACTIVE) CRY™ Medium Flow (CRY-M™) is a finer version of CRY™ designed for sysytems operating at slightly higher PSIs that still need high flow outputs and a little extra selectivity. It is not quite powder, but a much finer grain than CRY. The smaller granule size helps prevent channeling that can sometimes occur at higher PSIs. Unlike CRX-M™, it does require pre-baking (2-4 hrs. at 200+F), but it is already mixed for you. We recommend CRY-M™ for operators who want the same effect as CRY™ but are running at higher pressures or systems with size limitations. For extracts that require additional remediation beyond CRX-M™, CRY-M™ offers a superior polish, effectively addressing color, fats, and lipids. Opt for CRY-M when aiming for effortlessly reproducible results with older biomass.
