Purification of Menthol by Supercritical CO2 Fractionation

Purification of Menthol by Supercritical CO2 Fluid Fractional Distillation

Menthol is a natural compound found in various plants, including peppermint and spearmint. It has a refreshing minty aroma and is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Menthol is usually obtained from plant extracts by steam distillation or solvent extraction, but these methods often result in impure or low-quality products. In recent years, fractional distillation using supercritical… Read more »Purification of Menthol by Supercritical CO2 Fluid Fractional Distillation

Continuous Countercurrent Supercritical CO2 Extraction and Fractionation of Natural Material: A Versatile and Efficient Method

Supercritical CO2 (SC-CO2) extraction is a highly efficient and versatile method for the extraction and fractionation of natural materials. The continuous countercurrent SC-CO2 extraction process is a modification of the conventional SC-CO2 extraction process that allows for the simultaneous extraction and separation of different compounds within the same material. This process is highly efficient and can be used for a… Read more »Continuous Countercurrent Supercritical CO2 Extraction and Fractionation of Natural Material: A Versatile and Efficient Method

Supercritical CO2 Fluid Fractionation (SFF)

Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) is a method for separating and purifying compounds from natural sources. Supercritical CO2 is one of the most commonly used solvents in SFE due to its unique properties, such as high diffusivity, low viscosity, and low toxicity. Supercritical CO2 fluid fractionation (SFF) is a type of SFE that can selectively separate mixtures of compounds based on… Read more »Supercritical CO2 Fluid Fractionation (SFF)
