Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are provided for multi-channel communication based real-time geolocation of an object entity. The system is structured for dynamic location of an object and real-time notification transmission to an object owner. The system receives a first communication message associated with a first identification code from a first user device, and determines an object entity associated with the first identification code and the object tag component, based on analyzing the first communication message. Subsequently, typically, the system constructs an object location interface associated with the determined object entity, wherein the object attribute interface comprises a location display component associated with the captured geolocation parameter associated with the first user device. The system initiates presentation of the object location interface at the owner device associated with the object entity.

Abstract: Described is an extraction device for extracting compounds from plant material and a method for using such an extraction device. The extraction device comprises an extraction tank receiving plant material and dissolving soluble compounds inside the plant material into a solvent to form a micelle. A series of fluidly connected separation chambers separate purified compounds from the micelle, resulting in purified compounds in each of the separation chambers and solvent. A heat exchanger and a chilled reservoir are used for cooling and storing the solvent. A pump is used for pumping and circulating the solvent into the extraction device. Finally, a control system automatically controls temperature and flow in the extraction device.
