Any solvent used at any stage of extraction from crude oil (?) to product, for starters. Random shit that was in the crude to start with. By products of heating

- tempguy9999 7y agoAnything that got into the container holding the butane would have to be as volatile as the butane, I think. So it wouldn't be a long-lasting contaminant as it'd evaporate very quickly, along with the butane. But if I'm wrong, if it wasn't volatile at room temperature & pressure, it would remain in the container as the butane was released so probably never meet the THC/weed anyway. I dunno, but that's my reasoning.
- cowsandmilk 7y agoWrong on all accounts. If any of that was correct, distillation could be one stage and we wouldn’t need a dozen plates to separate components. And then there’s the azeotropes of butane, most famously acetaldehyde.
