Methods and apparatuses for pressurized purification and infusion of plant matter and cellulose-based organic cellular material

This invention describes a method for sterilizing organic plant material by placing it in a heated vacuum chamber. A liquid reagent is vaporized and introduced into the chamber under vacuum, then the chamber is vented and re-evacuated to remove residue. The process is specifically for plant material with 1% to 40% moisture content and aims for at least a 50% reduction in microbial contamination.

Why it matters: Since 2018, advancements in food-safe gaseous reagents or precision control systems for vacuum and temperature may have made this sterilization method more efficient or cost-effective for organic plant materials.
