Abstract
A method, system, apparatus, and/or device for removing resin from material. The method, system, apparatus, and/or device may include a washer configured to receive water from a water source and air from an air source into an interior cavity of the washer via an inlet, the washer including a first filter located within the interior cavity, where the interior cavity is configured to store a material, the interior cavity is configured to direct a flow of the water and the air in a defined pattern to remove a resin from the material, and the washer comprises an opening covered by the first filter. The first filter may be configured to allow the water, the air, and the resin to exit the opening while restricting the material from exiting the opening.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a water source coupled to a washer, wherein the water source comprises a first container to store water;
- an air source coupled to the washer, wherein the air source comprises:
- a second container to store cold material;
- and
- a coil at least partially enclosed by the second container, wherein:
- the coil includes a first end to intake air into the coil;
- and
- the cold material cools the coil;
- the washer configured to receive the water from the water source and the air from the air source into an interior cavity of the washer via an inlet, the washer including a first filter located within the interior cavity, wherein:
- the interior cavity is configured to store a material;
- the interior cavity is configured to direct a flow of the water and the air in a defined pattern to remove a resin from the material;
- and
- the washer comprises an opening covered by the first filter, wherein the first filter is configured to allow the water, the air, and the resin to exit the opening while restricting the material from exiting the opening;
- a first tank approximate the opening of the washer, the first tank including a tower structure located within the interior cavity of the first tank, wherein:
- the first tank is configured to receive the water, the air, and the resin via a first opening in the first tank as the water, the air, and the resin exiting the opening of the washer;
- and
- the tower structure comprises a first sub-filter to trap at least a first portion of the resin as the water, the air, and the resin enter the first tank via the first opening in the first tank;
- a second filter coupled to a second opening of the first tank, wherein the second filter is configured to clean the water;
- and
- a second tank coupled to the second filter, wherein the second tank is configured to store the water cleaned by the second filter.
