High-pressure plant for processing materials with supercritical fluids

Service description

This device offers great versatility, as it allows the extraction of solid samples by means of an extraction cell (316 stainless steel) with a capacity of 2 L, using supercritical CO2 as well as liquid solvents under subcritical conditions and mixtures of both. 316 stainless steel) with a capacity of 2 L, using supercritical CO2 as well as liquid solvents under subcritical conditions and mixtures of both, ranging from liquid to supercritical through expanded liquids (GXL gas expanded liquids). For cascade decompression, the system includes two separation cells, with a capacity of 0.5 L each. The equipment contains a liquid sample pump, a CO2 pump and a pump for incorporating cosolvents into the supercritical CO2. The extraction cell. The extraction cell and separators have independent temperature and pressure control. The plant contains a CO2 recirculation system, through condensation and storage of the recirculated CO2. The operating limits of the system are 950 bar and 150 ºC.
