Abstract

Near-critical extraction of coriander seed, Dalmatian sage, and celery was performed on a pilot-scale extraction apparatus. Sage and celery were extracted using liquid carbon dioxide to obtain oleoresins. Coriander seed was extracted at 250 bar and 40°C. Coriander extract was fractionated into triglycerides and essential oils by using two separation stages at different pressures. Extractions were carried out using a range of particle diameters, carbon dioxide flow rates, and packed bed flow configurations to establish relationships between extract yield and extraction time/carbon dioxide usage. The particle diameter had the largest influence on both yield and extraction time for all materials. The flow rate and packed bed flow configuration affected only the rate of extraction of triglycerides. The extraction of essential oils/oleoresins was found to be intraparticle diffusion controlled, whilst triglycerides were found to be both film and particle diffusion controlled. A mathematical model was developed which satisfactorily predicts extract yields as a function of extraction time, flow rate, and particle diameter. The model contains only one adjustable parameter, the intraparticle diffusion coefficient, D_e, which is a constant for each herb.

Supercritical CO<inf>2</inf> extraction of Salvia fruticosa
2019, Journal of Supercritical Fluids
The supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of Greek sage leaves, i.e. Salvia fruticosa, was investigated at various operation conditions. Specifically, the effect of pressure, temperature and solvent flow rate on the extraction yield was examined. Thus, it was shown that as pressure increases, yield increases as well, while the effect of temperature depends on the extraction pressure. As for the flow rate, its increase mainly enhances the extraction rate. The SFE extracts were also compared with the essential oil obtained with hydrodistillation in terms of composition, revealing practically the absence of thujone and the presence of more biologically active compounds in SFE extracts. Finally, the experimental data were correlated successfully by a mass balance model based on Lack’s plug flow model.
Perspectives on processing of high value lipids using supercritical fluids
2018, Journal of Supercritical Fluids
Opinions regarding the state-of the-art, issues and future perspectives for the processing and production of high value lipids using supercritical fluids are discussed including examples from New Zealand. The categories of high value lipids discussed are seed oils, marine neutral lipid extracts and polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid concentrates, carotenoid-rich extracts, and phospholipid-rich extracts. Commercial production of carotenoid-rich extracts has been a growth area, particularly astaxanthin-rich oleoresin produced from the micro-algae Haematococcus pluvialis. The main research and development trends observed in the processing of feed streams to produce these high value lipid products are the use of ultra-high pressures for CO₂ extraction, the use of propane and dimethyl ether as alternative extraction solvent, and semi-preparative supercritical chromatography to produce omega-3 concentrates. New product opportunities include phospholipid concentrates from marine and dairy materials, EPA and/or DHA-rich oils and concentrates from GM-modified seeds, and a broader range of carotenoid-rich extracts obtained from microalgae.
Extraction kinetics and ANN simulation of supercritical fluid extraction of sage herbal dust
2017, Journal of Supercritical Fluids
The aim of this research was optimization of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of sage herbal dust obtained as by-product from filter tea factory. Extraction kinetics modelling and artificial neural network (ANN) simulation were used for that purpose. Experiments were performed within expanded Box-Behnken experimental design on three levels and three variables. Influence of pressure (100–300 bar), temperature (40–60 °C) and CO₂ flow rate (0.2–0.4 kg/h) on total extraction yield was determined. In order to determine initial slope, extraction curves were fitted with five modified empirical models. Since Sovová model provided the best accordance with experimental data, initial slope obtained by this model was used as response variable for optimization with ANN and multivariable models (linear, exponential, logarithmic I and logarithmic II). Optimized SFE parameters for maximized initial slope were pressure of 283 bar, temperature of 60 °C and CO₂ flow rate of 0.4 kg/h.
Supercritical fluid extraction of coriander seeds: Kinetics modelling and ANN optimization
2017, Journal of Supercritical Fluids
The main goal of this research was mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) process of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) seeds. SFE was performed at different set of process parameters: pressure (100, 150 and 200 bar), temperature (40, 55 and 70 °C) and CO₂ flow rate (0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 kg/h). Both applied empirical models, derived from models developed by Brunner and Esquivel et al., adequately described SFE process. Second objective was to determine effects of investigated SFE parameters on total extraction yield. Furthermore, calculated parameters from the empirical models were used for the calculation of initial slope, which was successfully used for optimization using artificial neural network (ANN). Optimized SFE conditions for maximized initial slope, i.e. initial rate of the solubility-controlled extraction phase, were pressure of 200 bar, temperature of 40 °C and CO₂ flow rate of 0.4 kg/h.
Influence of canola seed dehulling on the oil recovery by cold pressing and supercritical CO<inf>2</inf> extraction
2016, Journal of Food Engineering
Dehulling canola seeds provides an enriched cake in oil and proteins leading to an improved meal quality after oil extraction. The aim of this work was therefore to explore the impact of dehulling pre-treatment on both oil recovery and quality, using cold pressing followed by supercritical CO₂ extraction. For this purpose, whole canola seeds, dehulled seeds, and reconstituted mixtures of 5% and 10% hulls were used to recover canola oil. After 1 h pressing, the obtained results showed that the lowest oil yield (≈37%) was obtained using dehulled seeds, indicating that dehulling adversely affects the efficiency of cold pressing. After pressing, remaining oil in press cake was extracted by supercritical CO₂. After process optimization, the optimal parameters providing the maximum extraction yield (≈74%) were found at 40 °C temperature, 35 MPa pressure, 8.5 kg/h CO₂ flow, and 10 min of conditioning. Using these conditions for grinded seeds, the combined process allowed a quasi-total oil recovery (95 ± 3%) and showed similar oil quantities extracted from either whole seeds, dehulled seeds, or reconstituted mixtures, demonstrating thus the efficiency of the proposed process. On the other hand, total phenolic compounds content in oil was reduced upon dehulling, and results show that the oil obtained by supercritical CO₂ extraction was about twice enriched in phenolic compounds when compared to that obtained by mechanical pressing.
Experimental and mass transfer modelling of oil extraction from salmon processing waste using SC-CO<inf>2</inf>
2015, Journal of Supercritical Fluids
In this study, supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (SC-CO₂) was studied as a method to recover oil from salmon waste. Experiments at pressures of 15, 25, and 35 MPa, temperatures of 313, 333, and 353 K, and CO₂ flow rates of 0.18–0.48 kg/h were conducted and the yield compared. The yields at 35 MPa, temperatures of 313, 333, and 353 K, and CO₂ flow rates of 0.18 kg/h were approximately 39, 46, and 41 (wt.%). A process model based on intra-particle diffusion (D_e) and external mass transfer of fish oil (k_f) is presented for the supercritical extraction process. The adsorption equilibrium constant (K) is determined by fitting the theoretical extraction curve to the experimental data. The model using the best fit of theoretical extraction curve correlated the experimental data satisfactorily with AAD (%) ranged from 2.4 to 10.6%.
