Ultrasonic cleaning for the cannabis industry

With the increasing legalization of cannabis throughout the United States and more countries throughout the world, producers are looking for better methods of cleaning extraction tooling and glass beakers used in processing. Typical cleaning methods have centered around hand scrubbing with mild detergents using scrubbers, brushes or any number of scouring tools. While these manual methods are somewhat effective, they are very time consuming especially when dealing with the gummy, waxy residue that is natural byproduct of the cannabis leaf.

Ultrasonic washers are able to remove more of this wax residue through the power of cavitation. Cavitation produces a vacuum implosion that pulls the gummy residue from the cutting tools used to extract cannabis oils from the leaves. Ultrasound is the preferred method for cleaning electrodes, chromatography prints, metal injectors and inlets used in production and extraction. The best, documented method to clean waste from glass beakers is through the use of ultrasonic parts cleaners. Ultrasound deposits energy into the solvent mixture, speeding the process of extracting and dissolving contaminants.

The post processing market is also utilizing ultrasound to clean delivery method devices such as pipes, bongs and bowls. Due to the sticky nature of the residue, an ultrasonic cleaner is the most effective method of removing the burnt on residue left behind.
