Supercritical Co2 fluid purification system
When extracting high-value compounds from natural sources, conventional solvent-based methods can pose challenges, including safety risks and environmental impact. There is a need for a more sustainable and efficient alternative to liquid chromatography.
Purify compounds using supercritical Co2
The Supercritical Fluid Purification (SFC) system by De Dietrich Process Systems leverages the properties of supercritical CO2 for a more sustainable purification process. As CO2 transitions into a supercritical phase, it acts as both a gas and liquid, enabling efficient separation of high-value compounds from crude extracts. This process also removes unwanted chemicals like pesticides and fungicides. Using supercritical CO2 minimizes the need for organic solvents, making it an eco-friendly solution. Furthermore, CO2 is a cost-effective, upcycled solvent, adding to the economic benefits of the system. The technology, supplied exclusively by Thar Process, is ideal for various applications, including the CBD and cannabinoid industries, EPA/DHA (omega-3) extractions, and the production of flavors, fragrances, and cosmetics. Systems can be customized to handle daily purification capacities ranging from 1 kg to 150 kg, with tailored solutions available through pilot scale trials.
