Title:
METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR PRESSURIZED PURIFICATION AND INFUSION OF PLANT MATTER AND CELLULOSE-BASED ORGANIC CELLULAR MATERIALS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/133952
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method includes heating a vacuum chamber to a first predetermined temperature, and providing an organic plant material within the vacuum chamber. A vaporizer is heated to a second predetermined temperature, and is in fluid communication with the vacuum chamber. The vacuum chamber is evacuated to a a first predetermined, sub-atmospheric pressure using a vacuum pump. A liquid reagent is injected into the vaporizer such that the liquid reagent transforms into a gaseous/aerosolized reagent. The gaseous/aerosolized reagent is introduced into the vacuum chamber. After waiting a predetermined duration, a sterilization of the organic plant material is achieved. The vacuum chamber is then vented to atmospheric pressure, and the vacuum chamber is again evacuated, to a second predetermined, sub-atmospheric pressure, to remove a reagent residue from the organic plant material, followed by a second venting of the vacuum chamber to atmospheric pressure.
