Systems and methods are described for processing a plant material, such as cannabis and/or hemp. An example method includes: providing a slurry of plant material; providing an inert gas; adding the slurry and the inert gas to a tank; applying heat and pressure to the slurry inside the tank to generate a processed plant material; removing the processed plant material from the tank; and drying the processed plant material in a dryer to produce a dried product comprising cannabidiol (CBD).

Systems for processing plant materials and producing dried products

A low profile design air tunnel system and method for providing uniform air flow in a refractance window dryer are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a system comprises a conditioned air supply manifold that provides air into a drying chamber. The system has a drying belt directed through the drying chamber. A feed application tray at a first end of the drying belt applies a liquid to the drying belt. The system has an exhaust manifold located at the first end of the drying belt.
