Supercritical fluid extraction 'The green manufacturing process'

摘要

Sustainability has also become a leading strategy for new successful product and process development for the 21st century. Therefore new industrial processes which offer ecological and social advantages are demanded. New processes using Supercritical fluids, which improve current ones in simplicity, energy saving, recycling and in quality of obtained products, constitute clean processes in the frame of environmentally accepted technologies. Supercritical Fluid Extraction is becoming increasingly important as an environmentally acceptable replacement for more traditional solvents in the move towards Green Chemistry.
