What are the applications of supercritical CO2 extraction technology in plant extraction?

  Supercritical CO2 extraction technology has the advantages of energy saving, purity, rapidity, high efficiency, and simple operation because it combines rectification and liquid-liquid extraction, and plays an important role in the extraction and separation of effective components of traditional Chinese medicine. 1. Extraction of volatile oil The volatile oil is sensitive to high heat, acid, and alkali, and is easily destroyed when extracted by traditional steam distillation, with low efficiency. At present, there is much research literature on the application of supercritical carbon dioxide to extract volatile oil, and the yield of the obtained product is high and the integrity of the components can be maintained. The researchers used organic solvent extraction (SE), steam distillation extraction (SDE), and supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (SFE-CO2) to extract celery seed oil. The results showed that the celery seed oil obtained by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction...
