Scale-up approach for supercritical fluid extraction with
The study was performed by using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) with ethanol–water co-solvent at two operating conditions (L1: 200 bar, 60 °C and L2: 262 bar, 80 °C).
The setup (Fig. 1) for supercritical fluid extraction involves a pump, a pressurized compartment, and a collecting vessel. The solvent is commonly stored in a tank connected to a pressurized pump. The commonly used solvent is CO 2, pumped into the system as a liquid below 5 °C and at around 50 bars of pressure.

2.1. Background of Supercritical Fluid Extraction . SFE is classified among the novel extraction techniques that are a more environmentally friendly method by which to produce indigenous substances that have applications in various industries from sustainable sources such as herbs, spices, aromatic and medicinal plants.
The supercritical fluid extraction (SCFE) process is a clean, innovative, and eco-friendly technique that offers attractive features for extracting essential oils (EOs) from various plants and herbs. SCFE overcomes the limitation of traditional techniques such as Hydrodistillation and steam distillation due to its enhanced transport properties
Supercritical carbon dioxide systems for sustainable
Green chemistry aims at replacing toxic solvents by safer solvents such as supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2), which displays zero surface tension, outstanding transport properties, high diffusivity, and tuned solubilization by changing the pressure and temperature, or adding cosolvents. Nonetheless, the practical application of scCO2-based technologies under supercritical conditions
Abstract. Among the different extraction techniques used at analytical and preparative scale, supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) is one of the most used. This review covers the most recent developments of SFE in different fields, such as food science, natural products, by-product recovery, pharmaceutical and environmental sciences, during the
Supercritical Fluid Extraction: A Global Perspective of the
Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is the most commonly used supercritical fluid and has applications in food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and correlated industries. Many research works have already demonstrated that SFE is a technically feasible process that may also be commercially competitive in terms of economic viability.
A supercritical fluid is any substance maintained above its critical pressure and temperature, where it has a mix of properties between liquid and gas. Carbon dioxide is the most used supercritical fluid due to its advantageous properties (low critical points, toxicity, cost, among others.).
Recent Advances in Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Natural
In this review, recent advances in greener technology for extracting natural bioactive components from plant origin sources are discussed. Bioactive compounds of plant origin have been defined as natural chemical compounds present in small amounts in plants. Researchers have shown interest in extracting bioactive compounds because of their human health benefits and characteristics of being eco
With the adequate temperature and pressures, carbon dioxide migrates into a supercritical phase where it behaves as a gas and a liquid, and becomes an effective solvent. Supercritical CO 2 extraction is eco-friendly as it reduces the need for organic solvent. What's more, It is recyclable.
