Supercritical Fluid Extraction: Principles and Practice (Butterworth-Heinemann Series in Chemical Engineering): Mark A. McHugh Val J. Krukonis

Supercritical Fluid Extraction is a technique in which CO2 is used under extremely high pressure to separate solution (e.g., removing caffeine from coffee). Separations is basic to all process industries and supercritical fluid extraction is a specific type which is receiving a high level of attention. The book will combine basic fundamentals with industrial applications. The second edition has been expanded and updated and includes new chapters on chromatography and food processing.
