At the stage where you would normally heat the raw opium in the process of making smokable opium, you put your substance in a pot of water at 70 degrees celcius (I might be recalling this incorrectly, you should look this up first). Add calcium carbonate to the solution and change the PH through whatever means to 9,1.
At 9,1 PH the morphine will start to bind with the calcium carbonate, so now you can just leave it there for a while until the water evaporates on its own-- provided you've got a reasonable amount of water, the morphine should be just about done at this point.

This conversion also depends on the specific extraction and processing methods employed.
