Casey STEELE has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10343082
    Abstract: A system and method of extracting essential oils from plant material through the use of a low pressure alcohol-based closed system that includes a solvent chamber connected to a material column that in turn is connected to a recovery chamber. Plant material in the material column and the solvent in the solvent chamber are cooled using a cooling liquid, such as nitrogen. A vacuum pump connected to the recovery chamber creates a vacuum in the recovery chamber to draw the cooled solvent through the cooled plant material and extract essential oils, which are collected in the recovery chamber.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10293274
    Abstract: A system and method of extracting essential oils from plant material through the use of a low pressure alcohol-based closed system that includes a solvent chamber connected to a material column that is, in turn, connected to a kettle. Plant material in the material column and the solvent in the solvent chamber are cooled using a cooling liquid, such as nitrogen. A vacuum pump connected to the kettle creates a vacuum in the kettle to draw the cooled solvent through the cooled plant material and extract essential oils, which are collected in the kettle.

  • Publication number: 20190016989
    Abstract: A system and method of extracting fluids from biomass material through the use of closed system capable of both low pressure and pressurized extraction that utilizes a combined vacuum and fluid collection tank, thus enabling different levels of pressure and vacuum to achieve a wide range of temperatures and allowing for variations in the chemical properties of the resultant extracted fluid. Although vacuum is preferred for safety, pressure is available when necessary, such as due to higher levels of filtration in which the use of vacuum is insufficient.
