The aim of this work was to evaluate the potential of supercritical carbon dioxide to extract fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) from the microalgae Nannochloropsis oculata at low temperatures (37 and 55 oC) and pressures (5.9 and 7.6... more
The electrospinning of polymers has become a potentially important process for the production of tissue engineering scaffolds. CO2 impregnation of these scaffolds may provide a method for tailoring the chemistry of these relatively high... more
Supercritical dyeing has risen good expectation in the last few years due to the attractive perspective of complete elimination of water from dyeing processes. A lot of research activities have been developed in the last decade both to... more
There is an increasing public awareness of the health, environment and safety hazards associated with the use of organic solvents in food processing and the possible solvent contamination of the final products. The high cost of organic... more
The vapourliquid equilibria of α-pinene, limonene and fenchone, and solubility behaviour of camphor were measured in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) as a function of pressure and temperature using the static method. Experiments... more
It is currently impossible to control irrigation at the level of a single plant. Even with drip irrigation, in which emitters could conceivably be placed on a plant-by-plant basis, there is no way to control the amount of water emitted... more
Supercritical CO2 extraction has been proved to be a potential tool in the recovery of aroma compounds from different natural sources and in the removal of ethanol from aqueous solutions. In this work, both ideas are combined to develop a... more
Separation process using supercritical CO 2 to concentrate ethanol from aqueous solution appears to be a promising technology. Knowledge of vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) for systems consisting of CO 2 , ethanol and water is necessary for... more
The past twenty years has seen an expansion of the “critical fluid” technology platform with respect to using or combining multiple types of unit operations and compressed fluids in both their sub- and supercritical states. Although... more
