[.ca] Natural Extracts Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (ISBN 0849308194)

Supcercritical CO2 extraction solves a lot of problems:
This book covers one of the most interesting topics for producing natural extracts without solvent residues in the product. Further it is possible to fractionate the products by changing pressure and temperature in the down stream process very low energy consumption compared to traditional methods. I am wondering why there is no stronger interest from industry for this technology, because up to now only few plants of industrial scale are operated with this technology, although a lot of research work has been done up to now. I hope that this book rises the interest for this very actual and profitable technology. I am doing research in high pressure extraction for more than 10 years but it is very difficult to pursade the industrial partner to introduce such a plant in their companies. I want to gratulate the author for this very detailed and good understandable book. Thomas Gamse
