  • Publication number: 20210283527
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a plant matter burning or vaporization apparatus comprising a plant matter receptacle for containing plant matter, and a burning/vaporization region for burning or vaporization of plant matter to produce a plant compound vapor, and a plant matter conduit operable to continuously convey plant matter to the burning/vaporization region. Embodiments of the disclosure also relate to a solvent combination apparatus comprising or operatively connected to a vapor conduit located at or at a distance from the burning/vaporization region, from which the plant compound vapor is removed from the environment of the plant matter and conveyed to a solvent in which the plant compound vapor is dissolved. The dissolution of the plant compound vapor in the solvent may be assisted by passing the solvent and smoke/vapor through a nozzle creating a region of high pressure.
