Supercritical CO2 Extraction of Nutraceutical Products

Supercritical CO2 Extraction of Nutraceutical Products

Today, a score of supercritical CO2 extraction plants are processing spices, essential oils, and nutraceuticals in many countries throughout the world. The plants process phytosterols, carotenes, xanthophylls, specialty lipids, and antioxidants, from botanical, biological, and marine sources.

This white paper, written by Phasex founder Val Krukonis, discusses the nutraceuticals industry and its growing reliance on supercritical fluid services firms like Phasex.

In this white paper:

  • Current status of supercritical fluid extraction
  • Solubility in supercritical fluids
  • Nutraceutical and natural extract products
  • Concentration of astaxanthin from microalgae
  • Concentration of y-Oryzanol from rice bran oil
  • Extraction of phytosterols from agricultural feedstocks
