A Thermal-Fluid-Solid Coupling Computation Model of Initiation Pressure Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fracturing

Vetiver Oil Extraction Optimization Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid

Continuous Synthesis of Oleyl Oleate in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide using Solid p-Toluenesulfonic Acid as Catalyst

Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) was used as solvent to synthesize oleyl oleate as an analog of Jojoba oil from oleic acid and oleyl alcohol with high conversion (100%) of the acid into ester in a short time of 100 min. Utilizing a low cost solid catalyst, p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (PTSA), the esterification reaction was performed, without any prior preparation step...

black nightshade oil extraction using supercritical fluid carbon dioxide

black nightshade is a weed plant that grows abundantly in most parts of iran. in this study, central composite response surface method to investigate the effect of temperature 35-55 °c and pressures 170-350 bar during the dynamic time of 120 min, the particle size of 150 microns and flow rate of 3 liters per minute on the efficiency of oil extracted from the fruits of black nightshade and optim...

Temperature and pressure effects on solubility in supercritical carbon dioxide and retention in supercritical fluid chromatography

Solubilities of some polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in supercritical carbon dioxide were measured with a procedure based on a direct on-line combination of a saturation cell to a flame ionization detector. Acenaphthene, anthrance and chrysene were selected as the test solutes. A method was developed and evaluated which enables the measurement of the contribution of solute vapor pressur...

Removal and Recovery of Uranium from Solid Wastes by Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid Leaching Method

Supercritical CO2 fluid leaching (SFL) method using supercritical CO2 fluid containing a complex of HNO3 tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) was applied to removal of uranium from radioactive solid wastes. Sea sands, incineration ashes and porous alumina bricks were employed as matrixes of simulated solid wastes. Real radioactive incineration ash wastes and firebrick wastes were also subjected to the S...
