Ziel Launches New Microbial Control Solution for Cannabis
The industry solutions provider introduced the RFX, its newest generation of radio frequency technology to control microbial pathogens in cannabis while retaining product sensory qualities.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ziel introduces its next-generation, microbial control solution to the cannabis market, the Ziel RFX. The RFX has a greater than 99% pass rate and the highest volume throughput in the industry with the capacity to process 160 lb of cannabis in an eight-hour shift. Additionally, Ziel’s radio frequency technology is suitable for use in organic cannabis cultivation operations and preserves the enzymatic properties that make each cannabis strain unique.

Familiarize Yourself with a Radio Frequency Solution for Mold Issues
Cannabis regulatory compliance is shifting away from ionizing radiation (X-ray) mold treatment toward an organic, non-ionizing and more cost-effective solution—Radio Frequency (RF).
RF uses a thermal process to kill mold and pathogens, and unlike X-ray, E-beam or gamma radiation – all ionizing technologies - it doesn’t change the molecular structure of the plant. Instead, it activates the plant’s water molecules, causing them to oscillate and generate enough heat to kill microbes with minimal impact on cannabinoid and terpene content.
This organic, non-chemical approach is an ideal solution for budding European markets, most of which follow a pharmaceutical model with standards based on European Union Good Manufacturing Processes (EU GMP). Based on this model, Germany has already established that any medicinal products treated with ionizing radiation technologies must receive an AMRadV license. The process to secure this license can take up to 18 months and costs EUR 5,000 per strain.

APEX 7 In Action
Los Sueños Farms adopted the APEX solutions into their operations in 2016. We're thankful to be their remediation solution of choice.
Patented RF technology shows promise for cannabis and hemp decontamination.
Surviving in the cannabis regulations can be a real doozie. Even vigilant cultivators occasionally have to deal with yeast, and other pathogens, which make a crop unsellable. Remediation usually means a loss of terpenes or potency, but Ziel has secured the first patent for the innovative process of microbial reduction through radio frequency technology.
