Beneficiation of coal using supercritical water and carbon dioxide extraction: sulfur removal

Vetiver Oil Extraction Optimization Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid

Pond Sludge : Electrokinetics , Carbon Dioxide Extraction , and Supercritical Water Oxidation

At DOE sites, significant amounts of Job Control Waste (JCW) need to be disposed. This JCW is generated and contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) during clean-up operations. A commercial, plant-based absorbent material, “Toxi-dry”, is used extensively for decontamination and decommissioning of DOE waste sites and is classified a hazardous JCW after use. In this investigation, 1,2,4...

Efficiency of Water Removal from Water/ethanol Mixtures Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Techniques involving supercritical carbon dioxide have been successfully used for the formation of drug particles with controlled size distributions. However, these processes show some limitations, particularly in processing aqueous solutions. A diagram walking algorithm based on available experimental data was developed to evaluate the effect of ethanol on the efficiency of water removal proce...

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...

Micronization of Poorly Water-Soluble Trichlorocarbanilide Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Trichlorocarbanilide has widely been used in cosmetics and household products, but the extremely low solubility of trichlorocarbanilide in water constrains the development of water-based products. In order to enhance the bioavailability, trichlorocarbanilide were micronized using supercritical fluid. Supercritical carbon dioxide was selected due to relatively low critical temperature and the ra...
