20L Aerosol Extraction System
A compact production-scale low-pressure aerosol system that gently extracts essential oils and aromatics from any botanical at room temperature, with no residue.
Description
The 20L Aerosol Extraction System steps up from our entry model to a compact production-scale platform. It gently captures the essential oils, aromatics and oleoresins from virtually any botanical, using inert R134a as the working solvent to extract at room temperature and low pressure, preserving the plant’s full natural profile with no thermal degradation and no solvent residue.
Low PressureOperates at just 2-12 bar for a safer, lower-cost process.
Room TemperatureRuns at 15-45 °C, protecting heat-sensitive compounds.
No ResidueClean, food-grade extracts, ready for direct use.
Fully AutomatedPLC touchscreen control of pressure, temperature and time.
Safe by DesignNon-flammable, non-explosive and non-toxic solvent.
Food-Grade 304 SSPolished stainless steel, with 316 available on request.
Gentle aerosol extraction
The small, non-polar and inert R134a molecule penetrates the plant tissue and thoroughly extracts the oil-soluble fractions at room temperature, with no thermal degradation and no loss of volatile compounds. The complete aromatic profile is collected intact and easily separated from the solvent.
Because the process does not extract solids or chlorophyll, an additional winterization step is often unnecessary. Extracts are pH-neutral and well suited to pH-sensitive pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications, while the solvent’s low boiling point removes the need for slow, energy-intensive solvent recovery.

One system, countless botanicals
The 20L system extracts, refines and infuses an exceptionally broad range of plant material, from rose and lavender to citrus peel, ginger and culinary spices. The same gentle, room-temperature process can also infuse natural oils back into a base, or layer botanical aromas: add fresh ginger root for a warm, spicy note, citrus peel to lift limonene, or lavender to enrich linalool.

Frequently asked questions
Inert, non-flammable R134a. It is non-toxic, non-explosive, and quickly recovered thanks to its low boiling point.
Essential oils, aromatics and oleoresins from virtually any botanical, including flowers, herbs, spices, seeds and citrus peel.
Room temperature (15-45 °C) and low pressure (up to 12 bar), preserving delicate, heat-sensitive compounds.
The 20 L vessel takes up to about 3 kg (6.6 lb) of dry botanical material.
220 V, 3 kW via a 4-way 50 A outlet. The footprint is 1500 × 1000 × 850 mm at roughly 350 kg.
Yes. The solvent is non-flammable, non-explosive and non-toxic, and pressure transducers automatically shut the system down to prevent over-pressurization.
