Who Will Find This Book Essential?

High recommended for professionals and gradutates with an interest in the CO2 Supercritical Fluid Extraction process with a focus on fruit extracts (oils), fragrance (rose,neroli, etc), spice(pepper,etc), with a focus on large scale chemical extraction, the maths and science behind the process.

Book Reviews

This is one of the best books on CO2 extraction from organic products like Citrus Oils (Fruit Extracts), Spices, fragrance distillation (Rose, Jasmine, Bitter Orange Flower Fragrance, Sandalwood and more). This book covers one of the most interesting topics for producing natural extracts without solvent residues in the product. Further it is possible to fractionate the products by changing pressure and temperature in the down stream process very low energy consumption compared to traditional methods.

... provides essential information for scientists interested in extractions in the laboratory or on an industrial scale, using an environmentally friendly option. The book lays the foundation for the potential investigator in the efficient isolation of naturally occurring compounds.

This interesting book deals with recent developments in the use of supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (SCFE). It provides the reader with a comp

Synthesizing research from a wide variety of sources, this work offers a convenient guide to a clean, safe, inexpensive, non-toxic, non-polluting solvent that performs better than most conventional solvents. Natural Extracts Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide reviews recent development in the technology and its applications to the food, flavor, fragrance, and pharmaceutical industries. It outlines the many advantages the method has over traditional methods like steam distillation, solvent extraction, and molecular distillation and it supports the popular trend toward the use of natural products in these industries.
