Forestry biomass is a by-product which commonly ends up being burnt for energy generation, despite comprising valuable bioactive compounds with valorisation potential. Leaves of Acacia dealbata were extracted the first time by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using different conditions pressure, temperature and cosolvents. Total yield, individual triterpenoids yields concentrations assessed...

Bearing in mind the centuries-old traditional use of chamomile, but also increasing demand for its products modern industry, oriented toward sustainable development, there are efforts efficient extraction high-value compounds this plant, as well obtaining with added value. With that goal, conventional and contemporary separation techniques were applied work. Both hydrodistillation processes (HD...

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...

The advantage of the application of the supercritical extraction in contrast to the conventional methods to prepare micro and nanoparticles is that the product no longer is exposed to high temperatures for a long time. Furthermore, the supercritical extraction offers the possibility to reduce the content of the residual organic solvent in the final product because of the high solubility of orga...

This paper primarily concerns strictly supercritical fluid models, which arise as functional law of large numbers approximations for overloaded processor sharing queues. Analogous results for critical fluid models associated with heavily loaded processor sharing queues are contained in Gromoll et al. [9] and Puha and Williams [15]. An important distinction between critical and strictly supercri...

A reliable and simple procedure to extract polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from marine mussels using microwave energy is proposed. Freeze-dried mussels were subjected to MASE (Microwave Assisted Solvent Extraction) in a closed-vessel microwave system with n-pentane-sodium hydroxide (5 %) or dichloromethane-pentane (1:1) at different temperatures (70 and 90 oC), the extraction time was 10 minut...

in this study, the diffusivity and volumetric mass transfer coefficients for the extraction of β-carotene from crude palm oil using co2 solvent in supercritical fluid were determined in the pressure range of 7.5-17.5 mpa and temperature range of 80-120 ºc. for this purpose, a statistical method was applied in order to minimize the number of experiments required. the volumetric mass transfer coe...

The antifungal activities of three supercritical CO2 (SCC) extracted cedar oils, Port-Orford-cedar (POC) (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana), Alaska yellow cedar (AYC) (Chamaecyparis nootkatensis), and Eastern red cedar (ERC) (Juniperus virginiana L), were evaluated against two common wood decay fungi, brown-rot fungi (Gloeophyllum trabeum) and white-rot fungi (Trametes versicolor). The statistical anal...
