Abstract: A process for producing cannabidiol from hemp and cannabis plants is disclosed. The steps of the process include the steps of: plant conditioning and size reduction, infusing with an extraction agent, separating a solid biomass and a liquid phase, treating the liquid phase with a removal agent, decarboxylation, removal of impurities; and color removal. The resulting cannabidiol conversion efficiency is over 90% and a TCH content within the legal limits for commercial cannabidiol.

Abstract: A process for separating clean water which has an impurities content of less than 100 ppm from waste materials such as farm manure is disclosed. In a first step, a plate separator splits the waste material stream into a first effluent fraction and a first solids fraction. The first solids fraction then undergoes two stages of pressing to increase the solids contents to about 30 to 40 percent which makes it suitable for granulation or pelletizing. The first effluent fraction is treated in successive stages with various chemical agents resulting in the removal of most of the solids and inorganic impurities from the effluent to achieve drinkable water purity.
