decaffeination of coffee beans

We have been testing on some extractions for our partners. The first one we are preparing for decaffeination of coffee beans.

They are a couple of ways to do this extraction. But essentially the method I’ve opted for is to swell the bean in water before the extraction.


I have run a few variants for the customer so they can see the potential in using co2 for this process.


This is one of about 5 testings we are undertaking 

If you want to discuss the project (decaffeination of coffee beans) with us why not get in touch .

What are the advantages of using supercritical extraction technique to extract sesame oil?

  Supercritical extraction is a technique that uses supercritical fluids, such as carbon dioxide, as solvents to extract desired compounds from a variety of materials, including plant matter. This technique has several advantages over traditional extraction methods, such as steam distillation and solvent extraction. Firstly, supercritical extraction is a more efficient method of extracting desired compounds from materials. Supercritical fluids have unique properties that make them better solvents than traditional solvents. Supercritical fluids have high diffusivity, low viscosity, and high density, which allows them to penetrate materials more deeply and extract more compounds than traditional solvents. Secondly, supercritical extraction is a more environmentally friendly method of extraction. Unlike traditional solvents, supercritical fluids are non-toxic, non-flammable, and do not leave any harmful residues behind. This makes them safer for both the environment and the workers who ha

Supercritical Fluid Extraction Technology

图片
Supercritical fluid extraction is the world's most advanced physical extraction technology, referred to as SFE (supercritical fluid extraction). At lower temperatures, when the gas pressure is continuously increased, the gas is converted into a liquid. When the pressure increases, the volume of the liquid increases. There is always a critical temperature (Tc) and critical pressure (for a particular substance). Pc), above the critical temperature and critical pressure, the material does not become liquid or gas, which is the critical point. In the range above the critical point, the matter state is between the gas and the liquid, and the fluid within this range becomes a supercritical fluid (SF). Supercritical fluids have strong penetrability similar to gases and large density and solubility similar to liquids, have good solvent properties, and can be used as solvents for extraction and separation of monomers. Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) is a high-tech technol

Comparison between supercritical extraction technology and anhydrous extraction technology

图片
  Comparison between Supercritical Extraction Technology and Anhydrous Extraction Technology, as well as their respective advantages and application areas: Supercritical Extraction Technology: Supercritical extraction is a separation technique that uses a supercritical fluid, usually carbon dioxide, as a solvent. Under high pressure and temperature, carbon dioxide can reach a supercritical state, exhibiting properties between gas and liquid, with high diffusivity and low viscosity. Its main advantages include: Environmentally friendly: Supercritical carbon dioxide is a natural, non-toxic, and harmless solvent that can be easily released by depressurization after the operation, eliminating the need for hazardous organic solvents. Mild conditions: Supercritical extraction is conducted at relatively low temperatures, helping to preserve the activity of volatile and heat-sensitive compounds. Versatility: By adjusting the temperature and pressure, selective extraction of different compounds
