Ethanol for Extraction: 200 Proof, 190 Proof, or Ever Clear?
Ethanol production contributed $34.7 billion to the country’s GDP. Manufacturers use that solvent to make sanitizers, extract oils, and as a cleaning agent. Alcohol grading depends on the solvent’s concentration and the impurities present. In this article, you’ll learn what makes 200 proof ethanol vital in extraction procedures. And factors making it better than 190 proof ethanol or Everclear. What is 200 Proof Ethanol? Vendors call the product 100% absolute, anhydrous, or dehydrated alcohol. However, it’s challenging to gain a 100% solvent concentration because it evaporates fast. Therefore, you’ll only get 99%+ ethanol processed from advanced molecular filtration techniques. And that means that the final product…
