Principle
The extraction process takes place in an extraction vessel where carbon dioxide penetrates with raw materials (such as biomass) under constant pressure and temperature. The pressure regulator provides pressure control and decompression of carbon dioxide.
The decompressed carbon dioxide can be used to separate extracts and gaseous carbon dioxide. The product is collected into the separator, the gaseous carbon dioxide is condensed into a liquid state by the condenser, and then discharged for recycling, and stored in the circulation tank, and then re-entered the carbon dioxide pump.
Features

Other Applications
- Extraction of bioactive molecules from medicinal plants, alkaloid extraction and separation;
- The lipids from different microorganisms, or for the recovery of lipids, or the removal of lipids from sugars and proteins;
- Extract anti-cancer substances from a variety of plants, especially taxol from taxus bark and branches and leaves to prevent cancer;
- Vitamins, mainly vitamin E extraction;
- The purification of various active substances (natural or synthetic), remove unwanted molecules (such as pesticide removal from vegetable extracts) or "residue" to obtain purified products;
- The processing of various natural antibacterial or antioxidant extracts, such as basil, skewred, thyme, garlic, onion, chamomile, chili powder, licorice and fennel seeds.
