Abstract: A terpene extraction system and method for efficiently extracting valuable terpenes from biological material, such as hemp. The terpene extraction system and method generally includes a fluid-bed mixer having a vessel, wherein the vessel can hold a vacuum and contain microwaves such that microwaves and vacuum can be applied to biological material in the vessel. The system also may include a microwave generator adapted to provide microwave radiation to the vessel, and one or more paddles adapted to move within the vessel, such that the paddle can agitate the biological material in the vessel and create a fluid bed. The system also includes a cold trap assembly in fluid communication with the vessel; and a vacuum pump in fluid communication with the vessel and the cold trap assembly, such that the vacuum pump can create a vacuum in the vessel by drawing vapor through the cold trap assembly.
