Model assisted supercritical fluid extraction and fractionation of added-value products from tobacco scrap

Supercritical Fluid Polarity-Based Fractionation of Plant Products

Fractionation of plant compounds to produce active purified fractions is a multi-step process, time-consuming and sometimes very expensive. This paper presents a single-step fractionation of tannins from a local plant, Phyllanthus niruri Linn. using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) method. The effects of operating conditions (pressure, temperature, flow rate, cosolvent content and ethanol-w...

supercritical fluid extraction of tobacco seed oil and its comparison with solvent extraction methods

tobacco (nicotiana tabacum l.) is an important industrial crop and its seeds contain significant amounts of oil. the extraction of oil components using solvent at high pressure, or supercritical fluid (scf), has received much attention. in the present study, statistical analyses showed that the average extraction yield of seed oil of five tobacco varieties using sfe was 9.33%, which was higher ...

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...
