Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudy of Supercritical Coal Extraction in Toluene Containing FluidsPeter Nikolayevich Kuznetsov, Svetlana Mikhaylovna Kolesnikova, Ludmila Ivanovna Kuznetsova, Anastasia Valerievna KazbanovaThe conversion of brown coals and sapropelic coal in toluene containing mixtures with co-solvents (water, ethanol and tetralin) was studied under sub- and supercritical conditions within the temperature range of 375-550°C and at pressures from 7 to 40 MPa. It was found that the extent of coal extraction in the toluene solvent medium, at 400°C, was significantly increased by the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 1 Mar 2016 · 7,610 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovements on Semi Critical Assisted-Solvent Extraction of Biocrude Oil from Spirogyra. sp Macro AlgaeTulio Chavez-Gil, Hany F. Sobhi, Alexis Pacheco-LaracuenteHere, we report on an improved chemical method to extract hydrocarbons (CH) and Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) from wild green macro algae, which is higher than that carried out with conventional Soxhlet (Sx) and similar to that of Subcritical (SbC) or supercritical fluid (SCE) extraction methods. Crude oil plus residual biomass gave combined calorific values of 49.05 MJ/kg in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2018 · 10,083 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction of Essential Oil from Nigella sativa Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide: Study of Antibacterial ActivityNagi A. Alhaj, Mariana N. Shamsudin, Hana F. Zamri, Rasedee AbdullahThe antimicrobial activity of N. sativa essential oil obtained by supercritical fluid extraction by carbon dioxide was investigated against Gram Positive and Gram negative strains, isolated from clinical specimens. Best conditions for Black cumin oil extraction are obtained at 400 bar, 40°C and a solvent flow rate of 25 g min-1. The seed extracts were prepared by supercritical fluid extraction … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,205 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Branching Cell Population Model Allowing for Cell DeathMounir AoutWe use multi-type branching processes to describe a general cell population model allowing for cell death. Unlike the case without cell death, the process can be subcritical, critical or supercritical. Since we are interested in the supercritical case where the process can escape extinction with positive probability, we give conditions ensuring the supercriticality. In this context, we show the existence … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,717 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupercritical Fluid Extraction of Palm CarotenoidsPuah C. Wei, Choo Y. May, Ma A. Ngan, Chuah C. HockThe extraction of carotenoids from crude palm oil was carried out in a dynamic (flow- through) supercritical fluid extraction system. The carotenoids obtained were quantified using off-line UV-visible spectrophotometry. The effects of operating pressure and temperature, flow rate of the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2), sample size of feed used on the solubility of palm carotenoids were investigated. The results showed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,762 accessesView PDF Cite
