A green process for extraction
Supercritical CO2 technology puts forward the use as a solvent of a gas in supercritical state. There are many advantages in such a choice.
-Overcome the use of harmful chemical solvents.
-Increase the quality in final product, until now limited by the use of less selective solvents.
-Improve extractive efficiency. In addition, CO2, unlike traditional solvents (hexane, ethanol, etc.), is completely removed while extraction is running.
