dispersive liquid liquid microextraction (dllme) combined with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (gc–ms) was used for the extraction and determination of 13 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in mineral water samples. in this procedure, the suitable combination of extraction solvent (500 µl chloroform) and disperser solvent (1000 µl acetone) were quickly injected into the water sample (...

Finding an environment-friendly and affordable method to remove contaminated soils from Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) has now become an attractive field for researchers, with super-critical fluid extraction being an innovative process in the field of contaminated soil treatment. Extraction with super-critical fluid is a simple and rapid extraction process that uses super-critical flui...

In the present work supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using CO2, was applied for the pre-treatment of mandarin peels. Two-step extraction, combining SFE and conventional extraction, was investigated. During the first extraction step supercritical CO2 at temperatures 25, 40 and 60°C and pressures from 100 to 300 bar was applied to remove the non-polar components from the extracting material. ...

This article carried out the extraction of sesame oil by using three extraction techniques: supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), Soxhlet and sequential extraction. The SFE was performed using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) as solvent and ethanol as cosolvent. Tests were performed at 20 MPa, 35°C and a flow rate of 2.5 g CO2/min with a total extraction time of 210 minutes. The Soxhlet ex...

The antimalarial artemisinin, the active principle of the plant Artemisia annua L., was extracted by Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE). Soxhlet extraction was studied as comparison processes. The extracts were analyzed by the indirect method GC-FID. The maximal extraction yield (1.82%DW) was obtained by SFE at T=40°C, P=200bar, CO2flow=4.5g/min, and 20% ethanol as modifier. The artemisinin e...

Arthrospira platensis biomass was used in order to obtain functional lipophilic compounds through green extraction technologies such as supercritical carbon dioxide fluid extraction (SFE) and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). The temperature (T) factor was evaluated for MAE, while for SFE, pressure (P), temperature (T), and co-solvent (ethanol) (CS) were evaluated. The maximum extraction yie...

The objective of this study was to compare the oil extraction yield and essential oil composition of Indian and Iranian Nigella sativa L. extracted by using Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) and solvent extraction methods. In this study, a gas chromatography equipped with a mass spectrophotometer detector was employed for qualitative analysis of the essential oil composition of Indian and Ir...
