Food industry

The processes used during the production of extracts used in the food industry directly affect the quality of the extracts. Carbon dioxide extraction is the healthiest and most effective extraction method known today. The main reason for this is that carbon dioxide is completely harmless and leaves no residue in the extracts. For this reason, carbon dioxide replaces harmful solvents used in the food industry.

In many areas of the food industry, supercritical fluid extraction has numerous advantages over conventional processes. With supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, food components sensitive to high temperatures can be obtained without any deterioration and without any harmful residues. Since there is no solvent residue in the extract or raw materials obtained, fragrances and aromas can be used in their purest form.

PEX203C

The extraction or the separation of the undesired material is carried out in the supercritical phase by the use of the high solvent power of CO2. PEX203C allows control of CO2 solubility and provides a wide area of use in separation and purification processes.

The solubility of ethanol with the CO2 pressure allows the obtaining of polar compounds.
