In this study, moisture content, free fatty acids, peroxide, iodine value, unsaponifiable matter, saponification value, fatty acid composition and tocopherol contents of wheat germ oil obtained by SC-CO2 extraction and cold press technology were investigated. Moisture, free fatty acid (FFA), peroxide value, iodine value, unsaponifiable matter and saponification value of cold pres...

supercritical fluid extraction (scfe) is a soil remediation technology. at present, only a few companies are using from this method, all of which are technical based on conventional methods of extraction such as soilex solvent extraction. because of the hard enforcement of environmental conservation law, using green technology seems imperative. this paper endeavors to carry out the feasibility ...

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...

a pressurized fluid extraction (pfe) method for the extraction of pistachio oil was developed using a modified supercritical fluid extractor. the supercritical fluid extraction apparatus was modified to be able to pump liquid solvent and co2 into the extraction vessel alternatively. the experimental results showed that the extraction yield was independent of the extraction pressure. it was also...

Supercritical fluids are increasingly being used and promoted at a laboratory and pilot scale to produce high value, natural bioactives from biologically based raw materials. Supercritical CO2 is overwhelmingly the solvent of choice for these operations, but is largely limited to the processing of dry raw materials and the extraction of low polarity, low molecular weight compounds. The use of c...

The advantage of the application of the supercritical extraction in contrast to the conventional methods to prepare micro and nanoparticles is that the product no longer is exposed to high temperatures for a long time. Furthermore, the supercritical extraction offers the possibility to reduce the content of the residual organic solvent in the final product because of the high solubility of orga...

Conventional methods for extraction of the active constituents from herbal plants, in addition to their high processing costs, are harmful to the environment owing to their time and energy consumption, uncontrollable parameters, use of toxic and dangerous solvents, loss of the extract, thermal instability, the contamination of the product with organic solvents and the loss of water-soluble comp...

various novel techniques including ultrasound-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction and supercritical fluid extraction have been developed for the extraction of medicinal plants in order to shorten the extraction time, decrease the solvent consumption, increase the extraction yield, and enhance the quality of extracts. this review was conducted to introduce and compare the conventi...
