Characterization of Carbonaceous Materials Using Extraction with Supercritical Pentane

Vetiver Oil Extraction Optimization Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid

Lipid Extraction from Wheat Flour Using Supercritical Fluid Extraction

Cereal Chem. 81(6):693–698 Environmental concerns, the disposal cost of hazardous waste, and the time required for extraction in current methods encouraged us to develop an alternate method for analysis of wheat flour lipids. Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) with carbon dioxide has provided that medium and the method is fully automatic. Crude fats or nonstarch free lipids (FL) were extracte...

Supercritical Fluid Extraction+supercritical Fluid Chromatography

high pressures also requires special equipment. In summary, both RESS crystallization and SAS crystallization appear to be promising methods for generating supersaturation and therefore represent alternatives to conventional crystallization. Such alternatives may prove attractive in applications such as polymer and pharmaceutical processing, or in particle design for drug delivery. It is possib...

Wettability of Carbonaceous Materials with Molten Iron at 1550°C

In the direct iron smelting process, interfacial reactions of carbonaceous materials with molten iron are among some of the key factors that dictate the rate of carbon transfer into molten iron and establish a carbon concentrated melt to reduce iron oxide in the slag phase. Detailed wettability investigations on a range of carbonaceous materials, e.g. synthetic graphite, natural graphite, coke,...

Separation of phenolic compounds from plant materials using supercritical CO2

In the present work supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using CO2, was applied for the pre-treatment of mandarin peels. Two-step extraction, combining SFE and conventional extraction, was investigated. During the first extraction step supercritical CO2 at temperatures 25, 40 and 60°C and pressures from 100 to 300 bar was applied to remove the non-polar components from the extracting material. ...
