Application of Large Supercritical Extraction Equipment in Natural Product Development
Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) is one of the most advanced separation and extraction technologies in the world. In recent decades, it has attracted great interest of researchers all over the world. Through the efforts of researchers, it has made considerable progress. In the fields of medicine, chemical industry, food, petroleum, environmental protection and cosmetics, a number of valuable topics have been completed, and a new industry has been formed worldwide. Developing and utilizing supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technology to realize large-scale industrial production is a major breakthrough in transforming dozens or hundreds of scientific research achievements that have been developed in the laboratory into productivity and economic benefits. Supercritical fluids have special solubility, which was discovered by Americans at the end of the 19th century. It was not until the 1970s that Germany was applied to beer processing to extract beer and other industrial applicati...
