Supercritical water as a solvent.

چکیده

Water is not restricted to moderate temperatures and low pressures, but can exist up to very high temperatures, far above its critical point at 647 K. In this supercritical regime, water can be gradually compressed from gas-like to liquid-like densities. The resulting dense supercritical states have extraordinary properties which can be tuned by temperature and pressure, and form the basis for innovative technologies. This Review covers the current knowledge of the major properties of supercritical water and its solutions with nonpolar, polar, and ionic compounds, and of the underlying molecular processes.

Solvatochromic Shifts of the n → π* Transition of Acetone from Steam Vapor to Ambient Aqueous Solution:  A Combined Configuration Interaction QM/MM Simulation Study Incorporating Solvent Polarization.

A hybrid quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical potential is used in Monte Carlo simulations to examine the solvent effects on the electronic excitation energy of the n → π(*) transition of acetone in ambient and supercritical water fluid, in which the temperature is in the range of 25-500 °C with pressures of 1-2763 atm. In the present study, the acetone molecule is described by the AM1 H...

Sub and Supercritical Decontamination of Oil-Based Drill Cuttings: A Review

Drill mud is a fluid which is used in oil extraction industries in order to cool and lubricate the drill bit. Due to containing numerous toxic components, it is considered as a hazardous waste which must be treated before discharging to the environment. Current separation techniques for drill cutting treatment can be categorized into three main categories of physical (dewatering), physiochemica...

Selective Subcritical Water Extraction of Aromatic and Aliphatic Organic Pollutants from Petroleum Industry Soils and Sludges

Supercritical fluids have received much attention for analytical and processing applications. In particular, supercritical carbon dioxide has been used to extract relatively non-polar organics from a variety of environmental matrices, and has also been used for chemical processing. While supercritical carbon dioxide is relatively unreactive and is not an efficient solvent for polar organics, su...

Extraction of Citrus Flavonoids from Peel of Citrus Junos Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide with Polar Solvent

Abstract Citrus juice processing residues are mainly composed of peel, juice sack and seed. The peel, especially, consists of bioactive compounds such as flavones. Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction of flavonoid was carried out at a pressure of 30 MPa and temperature ranging from 80 to 160°C. Ratio of water and ethanol as a co-solvent was varied from 0 to 100%. Flavonoids such as ...

Effect of solvent type and ratio on betacyanins and antioxidant activity of extracts from Hylocereus polyrhizus flesh and peel by supercritical fluid extraction and solvent extraction.

The main objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of solvent type and ratio as well as the extraction techniques (i.e. supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and conventional solvent extraction) on betacyanins and antioxidant activity of the peel and fresh extract from the red pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus). The peel and flesh extracts obtained by SFE at 25MPa pressure and 10%...
