PROVIDING HIGHEST QUALITY EXTRACTION
OUR FACILITY
KC Processing Company, LLC is located at 12901 2nd Street, Grandview, MO 64030. Our facility sits in a large industrial district in the heart of the Kansas City metropolitan area.
The facility expands approximately 65,000 square feet. We enjoy a large warehouse area allowing us to store up to 500,000 pounds of industrial hemp biomass in preparation for extraction. In addition, we have a sizable equipment room encompassing our premium extraction machines.
OUR EXTRACTION PROCESS
- We use state of the art technology and equipment in our extraction process. Our numerous centrifuges feed the massive processing lines. Each processing line contains multiple levels of filtration, evaporation, and decarboxylation.
- Our fully inline system includes winterization and decarboxylation. We winterize with a cryogenic ethanol process. Our ethanol is chilled to -50 degrees celcius prior to its introduction to the biomass. Our exit temperatures of the ethanol / crude mix a is maintained at -50 degrees celcius.
- Upon completion of the cryogenic extraction process, the crude is then pressed through multiple filters. The final filter is a .5 micron filter.
- As a result of the very cold ethanol temperature that we extract with, and our filtration process, our crude is incredibly clean.
- With a reclaim rate of approximately 95% of the original CBD content, we are able to capture nearly all of the CBD contained in the biomass.
Testing
- We test and monitor the temperature of the ethanol before it is introduced to the biomass and upon exit from the centrifudge. This assures that our crude is clean.
- Our spent biomass is tested after extraction for CBD content to ensure we our maximizing the amount of CBD being extracted from the plant.
- Multiple tests of the CBD content are performed during production on each barrel of crude produced.
Quality Control
- We maintain procedures consistant with certification.
- Records of all testing are maintained.
- We obtain COAs on all biomass used.
- External COAs may be obtained upon customer request.
