This work aimed to improve yerba mate caffeine extraction process, considering three independent variables, carbon dioxide flow, ethanol flow and time, in levels. The following process parameters were kept constant: pressure (300 bar), temperature (60 °C), particle size (0.428 mm). Box-Behnken experimental design was carried out for 15 extractions the optimized condition obtain decaffeinated as...
