Ideal Applications

Solvent recovery — strips ethanol out of miscella after extraction or winterization so it can be reused rather than repurchased. The 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator is well suited to:

Cannabis Extraction

Licensed cannabis extraction and processing facilities operating under state or national licence

Pharmaceutical

Pharmaceutical-grade extraction for CBD, THC, and other cannabinoid products

Food & Beverage

Food-grade extraction for essential oils, flavors, and botanical extracts

Regulated Facilities

Extraction facilities operating under documented quality and process controls

Where the 100.FF fits in your process

Used in

Solvent recovery — strips ethanol out of miscella after extraction or winterization so it can be reused rather than repurchased.

Best for

  • Recovering ethanol from crude miscella at volume
  • Cutting solvent purchase and disposal cost
  • Ethanol lines where recovery is the bottleneck
  • Continuous-feed operation alongside extraction

GMP and EU GMP context

GMP is a facility and process standard. It applies to the building, the procedures, the documentation and the people together — no extraction system carries a GMP certification on its own.

The 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator is designed to support EU-GMP facility compliance, as published on its specification source.

What decides whether a system helps or hinders an EU GMP programme is its material selection, hygienic design and the qualification documentation available for it. Our guide to EU GMP cannabis extraction equipment sets out what to look for and which questions to put to any supplier.

100.FF Falling Film Evaporator — Frequently Asked Questions

What solvent does the 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator use?

It recovers ethanol from miscella after extraction or winterization so the solvent can be reused rather than repurchased.

What room classification do I need for the 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator?

Room classification for solvent recovery depends on the solvent volumes present and your local fire code — it is a property of the room and facility, not of the machine alone. Your facility code review with the local authority having jurisdiction determines the classification.

Can I run the 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator in an EU GMP facility?

The 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator is designed to support EU-GMP facility compliance, as published on its specification source. GMP — including EU GMP — is a facility and process standard: it applies to the building, the procedures, the documentation and the people together, and no extraction system carries a GMP certification on its own.

What documentation comes with the 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator?

A current specification sheet for the 100.FF Falling Film Evaporator is available from Decimal Engineering on request, and customers receive access to a standard operating procedure (SOP) library for their equipment. Documentation packages to support IQ/OQ/PQ and facility turnover are available; scope varies by model and configuration.
