Supercritical Fluid ExtractionIntroduction of the physico-chemical properties of the supercritical fluidsA pure supercritical fluid (SCF) is any compound at a temperature and pressure above the critical values (above critical point). Above the critical temperature of a compound the pure, gaseous component cannot be liquefied regardless of the pressure applied. The critical pressure is the vapor pressure of the gas at the critical temperature. In the supercritical environment only one phase exists. The fluid, as it is termed, is neither a gas nor a liquid and is best described as intermediate to the two extremes. This phase retains solvent power approximating liquids as well as the transport properties common to gases.A comparison of typical values for density, viscosity and diffusivity of gases, liquids, and SCFs is presented in Table 1.Table 1. Comparision of physical and transport properties of gases, liquids, and SCFs.Property Density (kg/m3 ) Viscosity (cP) Diffusivity (mm2 /s)Gas 1 0.01 1-10SCF 100-800 0.05-0.1 0.01-0.1Liquid 1000 0.5-1.0 0.001The critical point (C) is marked at the end of the gas-liquid equilibrium curve, and the shaded area indicates the supercritical fluid region. It can be shown that by using a combination of isobaric changes in temperature with isothermal changes in pressure, it is possible to convert apure component from a liquid to a gas (and vice versa) via the supercritical region without incurring a phase transition.The behavior of a fluid in the supercritical state can be described as that of a very mobile liquid. The solubility behavior approaches that of the liquid phase while penetration into a solid matrix is facilitated by the gas-like transport properties. As a consequence, the rates of extraction and phase separation can be significantly faster than for conventional extraction processes. Furthermore, the extraction conditions can be controlled to effect a selected separation. Supercritical fluid extraction is known to be dependent on the density of the fluid that in turn can be manipulated through control of the system pressure and temperature. The dissolving power of a SCF increases with isothermal increase in density or an isopycnic (i.e. constant density) increase in temperature. In practical terms this means a SCF can be used to extract a solute from a feed matrix as in conventional liquid extraction. However, unlike conventional extraction, once the conditions are returned to ambient the quantity of residual solvent in the extracted material is negligible.The basic principle of SCF extraction is that the solubility of a given compound (solute) in a solvent varies with both temperature and pressure. At ambient conditions (25°C and 1 bar) the solubility of a solute in a gas is usually related directly to the vapor pressure of the solute and is generally negligible. In a SCF, however, solute solubilities of up to 10 orders of magnitude greater than those predicted by ideal gas law behavior have been reported.The dissolution of solutes in supercritical fluids results from a combination of vapor pressure and solute-solvent interaction effects. The impact of this is that the solubility of a solid solute in a supercritical fluid is not a simple function of pressure.Although the solubility of volatile solids in SCFs is higher than in an ideal gas, it is often desirable to increase the solubility further in order to reduce the solvent requirement for processing. The solubility of components in SCFs can be enhanced by the addition of a substance referred to as an entrainer, or cosolvent. The volatility of this additional component is usually intermediate to that of the SCF and the solute. The addition of a cosolvent provides a further dimension to the range of solvent properties in a given system by influencing the chemical nature of the fluid.Cosolvents also provide a mechanism by which the extraction selectivity can be manipulated. The commercial potential of a particular application of SCF technology can be significantly improved through the use of cosolvents. A factor that must be taken into consideration when using cosolvents, however, is that even the presence of small amounts of an additional component to a primary SCF can change the critical properties of the resulting mixture considerably.Application of supercritical fluid extractionSupercritical extraction is not widely used yet, but as new technologies are coming there are more and more viewpoints that could justify it, as high purity, residual solvent content, environment protection.The basic principle of SFE is that when the feed material is contacted with a supercritical fluid than the volatile substances will partition into the supercritical phase. After the dissolution of soluble material the supercritical fluid containing the dissolved substances is removed from the feed material. The extracted component is then completely separated from the SCF by means of a temperature and/or pressure change. The SCF is then may be recompressed to the extraction conditions and recycled.Some of the advantages and disadvantages of SCFs compared to conventional liquid solvents for separations:Advantages∙Dissolving power of the SCF is controlled by pressure and/or temperature∙SCF is easily recoverable from the extract due to its volatility∙Non-toxic solvents leave no harmful residue∙High boiling components are extracted at relatively low temperatures∙Separations not possible by more traditional processes can sometimes be effected∙Thermally labile compounds can be extracted with minimal damage as low temperatures can be employed by the extractionDisadvantages∙Elevated pressure required∙Compression of solvent requires elaborate recycling measures to reduce energy costs ∙High capital investment for equipmentSolvents of supercritical fluid extractionThe choice of the SFE solvent is similar to the regular extraction. Principle considerations are the followings.∙Good solving property∙Inert to the product∙Easy separation from the product∙Cheap∙Low PC because of economic reasonsCarbon dioxide is the most commonly used SCF, due primarily to its low critical parameters (31.1°C, 73.8 bar), low cost and non-toxicity. However, several other SCFs have been used inboth commercial and development processes. The critical properties of some commonly used SCFs are listed in Table 2.Table 2. Critical Conditions for Various Supercritical SolventsFluid Critical Temperature (K) Critical Pressure (bar)Carbon dioxide 304.1 73.8Ethane 305.4 48.8Ethylene 282.4 50.4Propane 369.8 42.5Propylene 364.9 46.0Trifluoromethane (Fluoroform) 299.3 48.6Chlorotrifluoromethane 302.0 38.7Trichlorofluoromethane 471.2 44.1Ammonia 405.5 113.5Water 647.3 221.2Cyclohexane 553.5 40.7n-Pentane 469.7 33.7Toluene 591.8 41.0Organic solvents are usually explosive so a SFE unit working with them should be explosion proof and this fact makes the investment more expensive. The organic solvents are mainly used in petrol chemistry.CFC-s are very good solvents in SFE due to their high density, but the industrial use of chloro-fluoro hydrocarbons are restricted because of their effect on the ozonosphere.CO2 is the most widely used fluid in SFE.Beside CO2, water is the other increasingly applied solvent. One of the unique properties of water is that, above its critical point (374°C, 218 atm), it becomes an excellent solvent for organic compounds and a very poor solvent for inorganic salts. This property gives the chance for using the same solvent to extract the inorganic and the organic component respectively.Industrial applicationsThe special properties of supercritical fluids bring certain advantages to chemical separation processes. Several applications have been fully developed and commercialized.(1) Food and flavouringSFE is applied in food and flavouring industry as the residual solvent could be easily removed from the product no matter whether it is the extract or the extracted matrix. The biggest application is the decaffeinication of tea and coffee. Other important areas are the extraction of essential oils and aroma materials from spices. Brewery industry uses SFE for the extraction of hop. The method is used in extracting some edible oils and producing cholesterine-free egg powder.(2) PetrolchemistryThe distillation residue of the crude oil is handled with SFE as a custom large-scale procedure (ROSE Residum Oil Supercritical Extraction). The method is applied in regeneration procedures of used oils and lubricants.(3) Pharmaceutical industyProducing of active ingradients from herbal plants for avoiding thermo or chemical degradation. Elimination of residual solvents from the products.(4) Other plant extractionsProduction of denicotined tobacco.(5) Enviromental protectionElimination of residual solvents from wastes. Purification of contaminated soil.[1] 张培基, 喻云根, 李宗杰等. 英汉翻译教程[M]. 上海: 上海外语教育出版社, 1980.[2] 保清, 苻之. 科技英语翻译理论与技巧[M]. 北京: 中国农业机械出版社, 1983.[3] 童丽萍, 陈治业. 数、符号、公式、图形的英文表达[M]. 南京:东南大学出版社,2000.。

This pertains to all text, tables, figure captions and references.Subdivision - numbered sectionsDivide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ...), 1.2, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering). Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to "the text". Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on its own separate line.IntroductionState the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background, avoiding a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.Material and methodsProvide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant modifications should be described.ResultsResults should be clear and concise.DiscussionThis should explore the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published literature.ConclusionsThe main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection of a Discussion or Results and Discussion section.AppendicesIf there is more than one appendix, they should be identified as A, B, etc. Formulae and equations in appendices should be given separate numbering: Eq. (A.1), Eq. (A.2), etc.; in a subsequent appendix, Eq. (B.1) and so on. Similarly for tables and figures: Table A.1; Fig. A.1, etc.Essential title page information• Title.Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible.• Author names and affiliations.Where the family name may be ambiguous (e.g., a double name), please indicate this clearly. Present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done) below the names. Indicate all affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the author's name and in front of the appropriate address. Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including the country name, and, if available, the e-mail address of each author.• Corresponding author. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. Ensure that telephone and fax numbers (with country and area code) are provided in addition to the e-mail address and the complete postal address. Contact details must be kept up to date by the corresponding author.• Present/permanent address. If an author has moved since the work described in the article was done, or was visiting at the time, a "Present address" (or "Permanent address") may be indicated as a footnote to that author's name. The address at which the author actually did the work must be retained as the main, affiliation address. Superscript Arabic numerals are used for such footnotes. AbstractEach manuscript must include an abstract of about 100-150 words, reporting concisely on the purpose and results of the paper. An abstract is often presented separate from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, they must be cited in full, without reference to the reference list. Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. Graphical AbstractIt is required that the author submits the necessary components of a graphical abstract (see example). These components consist of a pictogram, the article title, and the names of the authors and their respective affiliations as they appear in the article. Maximum final dimensions of the pictogram are 5 X 5 cm with a required minimum pixilation of 300 ppi. Bear in mind readability after reduction, especially if using one of the figures from the article itself. Graphical abstracts will be collated to provide a contents list for rapid scanning.HighlightsHighlights are mandatory for this journal. They consist of a short collection of bullet points that convey the core findings of the article and should be submitted in a separate file in the online submission system. Please use 'Highlights' in the file name and include 3 to 5 bullet points (maximum 85 characters per bullet point including spaces). See /highlights for examples. KeywordsImmediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 6 keywords, using American spelling and avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, "and", "of"). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. These keywords will be used for indexing purposes. Keywords should be selected, if appropriate, from the following classes: theoretical methods, experimental methods, phenomena, materials, and applications. AbbreviationsDefine abbreviations that are not standard in this field in a footnote to be placed on the first page of the article. Such abbreviations that are unavoidable in the abstract must be defined at their first mention there, as well as in the footnote. Ensure consistency of abbreviations throughout the article. AcknowledgementsCollate acknowledgements in a separate section at the end of the article before the references and do not, therefore, include them on the title page, as a footnote to the title or otherwise. List here those individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article, etc.).Nomenclature and unitsUnits: The SI system should be used for all scientific and laboratory data; if, in certain instances, it is necessary to quote other units, these should be added in parentheses. Temperatures may be given in Kelvin or degrees Celsius. The unit 'billion' (109 in America, 1012 in Europe) is ambiguous and must not be used.Symbols and Abbreviations: Only widely accepted symbols and forms of abbreviation should be used, but always give the full expression followed by the abbreviation the first time it appears in the text. Abbreviations and symbols used in tables and figures should be explained in the legends. The number of symbols should not exceed 10 per manuscript.FootnotesFootnotes should be used sparingly. Number them consecutively throughout the article, using superscript Arabic numbers. Many wordprocessors build footnotes into the text, and this feature may be used. Should this not be the case, indicate the position of footnotes in the text and present the footnotes themselves separately at the end of the article. Do not include footnotes in the Reference list.Table footnotesIndicate each footnote in a table with a superscript lowercase letter.ArtworkElectronic artworkGeneral points• Make sure you use uniform lettering and sizing of your original artwork.• Save text in illustrations as "graphics" or enclose the font.• Only use the following fonts in your illustrations: Arial, Courier, Times, Symbol.• Number the illustrations according to their sequence in the text.• Use a logical naming convention for your artwork files.• Provide captions to illustrations separately.• Produce images near to the desired size of the printed version.• Submit each figure as a separate file.A detailed guide on electronic artwork is available on our website:/artworkinstructionsYou are urged to visit this site; some excerpts from the detailed information are given here.

以成就型综述法,对超临界CO 2管道输送过程中停输、水击、泄漏和放空工况下形成的CO 2瞬态流加以描述、成果比较和综合评价。
结果表明:超临界CO 2瞬态流的关键因素是温度、压力、相态变化、协同作用;超临界CO 2管道安全停输时间可定义为从停输开始至管内任一点流体即将进入气液共存区的时间;CO 2发生相变首先造成流速突变,进而是压力的突变,产生水击现象,引起新的瞬变流动;站场放空系统的设计目标是在放空过程不出现冰堵、材料冷脆、噪声污染、放空系统激振等问题的前提下,放空时间尽量短;埋地管道泄漏规律涉及到土壤渗流场、温度场、浓度场等多场耦合问题。
研究结果可为超临界CO 2管道流动安全保障提供参考。

In this paper, supercritical CO2 decompression expe-riments were studied based on a set of small-scale experimental equipment, the volume of vessel is 50 L. The initial states are 8.1 MPa, 38.0˚C and 10.0 MPa, 38.0˚C. In the experiment, thermohy-draulic behaviors of decompression were analyzed by measuring pressure, fluid temperature, wall temperature, mass flow rate and external jet structure. From the experiment data, different initial state undergoes different decompression process. The external jet can be divided into three stages: the white jet’s length increase stage, the temporary stable stage and the attenuation stage. In addi-tion, experiments show that the lowest temperature at the bottom of vessel will reach −26.9˚C(10.0 MPa, 38.0˚C).

High-pressure gas–liquid equilibrium of the system carbon dioxide–citral at 50 and 70 °C

The name citral(3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal,C10H16O,molecu-lar weight152.24,CAS number5392-40-5)is generally used to indicate a mixture of the two double-bond isomers,the E-isomer (geranial)and the Z-isomer(neral),which are found together in lemon essential oil.The structure of the two isomers is reported in Fig.1.When dealing with thermodynamic measurements and calculations,it is typically assumed that geranial and neral,due to their remarkable similarity,behave in the same way and can be treated as a single pseudo-component.For example,this approach was followed in[5,7].Furthermore,in previous experiences regard-ing lemon oil fractionation by supercritical carbon dioxide[4,5], no noticeable difference in the concentration ratio geranial/neral between the feed,the extracts,and the raffinates was ever found, which is to say that the two isomers are expected to behave in the same way with respect to supercritical carbon dioxide.Cit-ral is liquid at ambient conditions(density at20◦C:0.888g/cm3; vapour pressure:50kPa at473.6K[11]).Citral was purchased from Sigma–Aldrich(product code C83007,purity>95%)and the GC purity of the specific lot(Lot:S28189-459)which was utilised is 96.4%,as reported in the certificate of analysis.It was used without further purification.2.2.Apparatus and experimental procedureA detailed description of the double-chamber apparatus used for the experimental measurements of high-pressure phase equi-librium is provided in a previous work[6].For ease of the reader, a schematic representation of the apparatus is reported in Fig.2. The chamber C1(170cm3),called the‘equilibrium cell’,is initially charged with a certain amount of citral(in the range20–35g).Car-bon dioxide is then fed to the apparatus up to the desired pressure. As a result,the liquid and the supercriticalfluid are contacted in the equilibrium cell,whereas the chamber C2(170cm3),also called the ‘gas cell’,contains pure carbon dioxide at the initial time.In order to reduce the time for reaching the equilibrium con-dition,the high-pressure gas phase is recirculated for6h between the two chambers by means of a piston pump(P),according to the procedure reported in[6].At the end of the recirculation period, the two chambers are separated by the closing valves V1,V2,and V3.In this way,it is possible to sample the whole content of the gas cell,without disturbing the two-phase system in the equilibrium cell.The gas and liquid sampling procedures are described in detail in[6].In short,the gas cell is depressurised opening the valve V4and conveying the content of the chamber to a cold sampling flask(approximately−20◦C)at atmospheric pressure.Because of depressurisation,the liquid condenses and is collected in the cold flask,whereas the gas exits the top of theflask and is conveyed to a drum-type gas meter(Ritter TG-1,measurement range2–120l/h). The gas meter supports a thermometer for the gas,whose temper-ature in the experiments resulted to be in the range21–29◦C.TheCHCOCCH2CH3H2CCHCCH3CH3HHCCOCCH2CH3H2CCHCCH3CH3HabFig.1.Structure of the

error at1l/min is estimated equal to0.20%.After the depressurisation step,the gas cell is pressurised again and is washed by continuouslyflowing supercritical carbon dioxide in order to complete the recovery of the solute,which is again collected in the cold samplingflask.Both in the depressuri-sation and washing step,theflow rate of carbon dioxide is kept at 1l/min.The amount of citral recovered from the gas phase in the experimental runs was in the range0.25–14g.Subsequently,the liquid sampling is simply performed opening slowly the valve V5 and conveying the samples to aflask at atmospheric pressure.Two samples were collected from the liquid phase and the average value was calculated for sampled quantities.The overall sampled volume of carbon dioxide was in the range0.5–1l.The gasflow rate during liquid sampling was maintained,on average,as closer as possible to1l/min,so as to operate in theflow rate range of maximum accu-racy for theflow meter.The overall amount of citral sampled from the liquid phase was in the range0.7–3.8g.The pressure reduc-tion in the equilibrium cell during the sampling of the liquid phase was always lower than1.5%of the total pressure.During phase sampling,values of pressure drop lower than2%of the total pres-sure are generally regarded as not altering the measurement of the equilibrium composition[12].3.Experimental resultsThe experimental measurements of the gas–liquid phase equi-libria of the binary system carbon dioxide(1)–citral(2)were performed at50and70◦C.At50◦C the phase equilibrium was determined for9pressure values,in the range7.80–11.10MPa, whereas at70◦C it was determined for7pressure values,in the range9.30–15.60MPa.The composition of both the liquid and the gas phase was determined according to the procedure described in Section2.2.Table2reports the composition of the two phases at equilibrium,for the selected couples of pressure and tempera-ture values.Some experimental runs were replicated in order to test the reproducibility of the measurement procedure.In these cases,Table2reports the average value of replicated runs.In all,25 experimental runs were performed.The Average Relative Deviation

the solubility of carbon dioxide in the liquid phase(S l).These values correspond to average ARDs equal to0.03%and1.6%for car-bon dioxide mole fraction in the gas phase(y1)and the liquid phase (x1),respectively.Fig.3shows the solubility of citral in the gas phase at50◦C, as a function of pressure.As it was expected,at constant tem-perature the solubility of citral increases with pressure,at a rate which increases as well.According to the data found in this work, at50◦C the solubility rises from7.8g/kg at7.80MPa up to89.8g/kg at11.10MPa.Fig.3also shows the comparison with the literature data available at the same temperature,which are those of Di Gia-como et al.[8]and Fonseca et al.[9].Large discrepancies can be observed among the three data sets,especially at pressures below 10MPa.If solubility values are calculated,by means of linear inter-polation,at the same pressure from different data sets,it can be observed that the solubility found in this work at8.7MPa is about 3.7times higher than that reported by Fonseca et al.[9],which in turn is about3times higher than that of Di Giacomo et al.[8].At 10MPa the solubility found in this work is1.5times higher than that of Fonseca et al.[9],which in turn is5.6times higher than that of Di Giacomo et al.[8].At pressure higher than10.3MPa,the only literature data available for comparison are those of Di GiacomoPressure

dioxide.Continuous lines are calculated by the thermodynamic model described in Section 4.et al.[8].In this part of the graph,it can be observed that the two sets of data approach.According to the data reported in Table 1and in Section 2.1of the present work,it is apparent that the discrepancies among the three data sets cannot depend on the purity of citral used in the experiments.Therefore,the discrepancies must be caused by dif-ferences in the experimental methods.One of the most relevant factors affecting the correctness of the gas sampling procedure is the temperature of the container in which the solute collects after the valve expansion causing the separation from the gas.In our experience,when dealing with volatile compounds of lemon essential oil,this temperature has to be very low (about −20◦C)in order to prevent a non-negligible re-evaporation of the collected solute,which may remain in contact with the gas flow from several minutes up to some hours,depending on the procedure applied.It is noted that this temperature is not reported in the procedure description provided by Di Giacomo et al.[8]and Fonseca et al.[9].If the temperature of the containers was not maintained sufficiently low,this must have caused a loss of the collected solute,which may explain the underestimation of the gas phase solubility shown in Fig.3.Furthermore,it is also noted that the mass of the solute is determined gravimetrically both in this work and in Fonseca et al.[9],whereas in the case of Di Giacomo et al.[8]the solute is recov-ered by dissolution in ethanol and its mass is indirectly determined by means of gas chromatographic analysis.In Fig.4,the behaviour of the solubility of citral in the gas phase is represented at both 50and 70◦C.Also at 70◦C the solubility increases with pressure at an increasing rate.In this case,the sol-ubility rises from 9.2g/kg at 9.3MPa up to 138.1g/kg at 15.6MPa.No comparison with other experimental data is possible at 70◦C.In the range of pressure values which was investigated,the solubil-ity of citral decreases with temperature.This difference is slight at 9.3MPa,but it rapidly becomes remarkable above 10MPa,due to the sharp increase of the solubility of citral at 50◦C,which corre-sponds to the system approaching the mixture critical point at this temperature.Figs.5and 6show the solubility of carbon dioxide in the liquid phase,as a function of pressure.As typical,the solubility of the gas in the liquid phase,at constant temperature,increases with pressure.At 50◦C,it rises from 0.743to 2.66g/g as pressure increases from 7.8to 11.1MPa (seeFig.5).Fig.5also shows the comparison of the experimental data measured in this work with the only other set of experimental data available for the liquid phase at this temperature [9].It is apparent that the trends of the two data sets are in excellent agreement.From a quantitative standpoint,if solubility values are0123Pressure (MPa)S o l u b i l i t y i n t h e l i q u i d p h a s e (g /g )Fig.5.Solubility of carbon dioxide in citral at 50◦C,as a function of pressure.The solubility is

pressures are compared,it is found that ARD (calculated on the basis of the data of this work)is equal to 11.2%and no single value of relative deviation exceeds 15%.At 70◦C,the solubility of carbon dioxide in the liquid phase increases from 0.512to 2.34g/kg,as pressure increases from 9.3to 15.6MPa.As it can be seen from Fig.6,the solubility of carbon dioxide in the liquid phase decreases with temperature,in the whole experimental pressure range.4.Thermodynamic modellingThe Peng–Robinson equation of state (PR-EOS)with the classical quadratic van der Waals mixing rules,including two temperature-independent binary interaction parameters,is able of providing a reasonably good representation of the gas–liquid phase equi-libria of the deterpenation process of lemon essential oil by means of supercritical carbon dioxide [5].Several authors obtained good results by employing this thermodynamic model for the representation of the equilibria of the binary sub-system car-bon dioxide–limonene [7,13–16].Good results were also obtained employing this model for the correlation of experimental data on the system carbon dioxide–citral at 42◦C [7].In the light of previous findings,and in order to provide a representation which is consistent to that provided for thedata measured by the same apparatus on the system car-bon dioxide–limonene [6],the above-mentioned thermodynamic model was applied also in the present work.The parameters of the123Pressure (MPa)S o l u b i l i t y i n t h e l i q u i d p h a s e (g /g )Fig.6.Solubility of carbon dioxide in citral

temperatures,and acentric factors of the two components are reported in Table 3.The values for carbon dioxide were taken by Sandler [18].Since citral decomposes at tempera-ture below the expected critical temperature,its critical parameters were calculated by means of the group contribution method pro-posed by Raam Somayajulu [19],whereas the acentric factor was estimated through the Lee-Kesler method,reported in Reid et al.[20].Further details on the estimation procedure are reported in [5].The mixing rules for the calculation of the mixture parameters (a m and b m )of the equation of state are given by:a m =2i =12 j =1z i z ja i a j ·(1−k ij )(1)b m =2 i =12 j =1z i z jb i +b j2·(1−Áij )(2)where z i and z j indicate the mole fractions of the components in the generic phase,and k ij and Áij are the temperature-independent binary interaction parameters (both equal to zero if i =j and k ij =k ji ;Áij =Áji ).The binary interaction parameters were calculated by regression of experimental data,searching for the minimum of the objective function:˚(k,Á)=1N 50·N 50 i =1S gci −S gei S gei + S lci −S lei S lei +1N 70·N 70 i =1S gci −S gei S gei + S lci −S lei S

to be:k =0.051,Á=−0.029.Figs.4and 6show the comparison between calculated and experimental data for the solubility in the gas and liquid phase,respectively.Fig.7shows the overall behaviour of the system car-bon dioxide–citral,by reporting experimental and calculated data on the P –x –y equilibrium diagram.Next to the complete diagram,an enlarged representation of the region referred to the phase at high carbon dioxide concentration is provided for readability.As it can be seen,the qualitative behaviour of the experimental data,at both temperatures and for both phases,is well represented by the proposed thermodynamic model.In particular,the region at higher pressure,up to the vicinity of the mixture critical point,is excellently represented.Employing the proposed thermodynamic model,two distinct phases were located up to 11.30MPa at 50◦C,and 16.08MPa at 70◦C.Table 4reports the Average Relative Devi-ation (ARD)between calculated and experimental data,for each temperature and each phase.When data are reported as solubility,instead of mole fractions,some remarkable deviations can be high-lighted,especially for the solubility of citral in the gas phase.These deviations are mainly caused by the model predictions at lower pressures,which underestimate the experimental solubility.As for the variation with temperature of the solubility of citral in the gas phase,the model correctly predicts its decrease when tem-perature increases,in the whole pressure range where data at both temperatures are available.According to the model,an inversion of this behaviour is located at approximately 8.5MPa (see Fig.4).The decrease of solubility of carbon dioxide in the liquid phase,when temperature increases,is correctly predicted by the model.Table 4Average relative deviation

gas–liquid phase equilibria of the system carbon dioxide–citral.With respect to previous experimental data which were found in the literature,the knowledge of the behaviour of this system at50◦C is extended to higher pressures,while exper-imental data at70◦C are reported for thefirst time.In addition, it was proved that the Peng–Robinson equation of state,with the classical quadratic mixing rules and two temperature-independent binary interaction parameters,allows to provide a reliable repre-sentation of the high-pressure gas–liquid phase equilibria of this system.References[1]R.J.Braddock,Handbook of Citrus By-Products and Processing Technology,JohnWiley&Sons,New York,1999,pp.149–174.[2]Y.H.Hui,Encyclopedia of Food Science and Technology,vol.1,John

OrganicRankineCycle:有机朗肯循环
Converting Low-Grade Heat into Electrical PowerTrilateral Flash CycleThe Trilateral Flash Cycle (TFC) is a thermodynamic power cycle whose expansion starts from the saturated liquid rather than a vapor phase. By avoiding the boiling part, the heat transfer from a heat source to a liquid working fluid is achieved with almost perfect temperature matching. Irreversibilities are thereby minimized. According to Stiedelet. Al. [1], its potential power recovery could be 14 - 85% more than from ORC or flash steam systems provided that the two-phase expansion process is efficient. Fig.1 and Fig.2 are the configuration of a trilateral flash cycle and its process in a T-s diagram, respectively.Fig. 1 The configuration of a trilateral flash cycleFig. 2 The process of a trilateral flash cycle in a T-s diagramAlthough this system has been considered for over 30 years, a lack of suitable two-phase expanders with high adiabatic efficiencies is the main obstacle for it to become reality and only small scale demonstration unit of it is known to have been built. Two-phase expanders were studied extensively during the 1970�s, among which a Lysholm screw expander in a twin screw machine proposed by Sprankle and further studied by Steudel, et al. [1] was said to have adiabatic efficiencies of the order of 50%. However, studies conducted by Smith, et al. show that it is possible to design and construct twin screw expenders for trilateral flash cycle application with predicted adiabatic efficiencies of the order of 80% or more [1]. They have realized the design, and test results of screw machines showing two-phase fluid expansion with adiabatic efficiencies of more than 70% [2].Example--Trilateral Flash CycleIt has been mentioned that although theoretically trilateral flash cycle has a lot of advantages in term of the efficiency, the difficulty of developing an efficient expander for two phase flash has also been the main obstacle. There is no trilateral flash cycle power plant reportedly in operation. However, some pilot demonstrations have been conducted by Smith, Stosic and Kovacevic [3]. The following are the setup of the of expander and its components.Fig. 3 Screw expander and its main components in a trilateral flash cycleFigure source: /~ra601/grc2005.pdfReferences[1] RFStiedel, KA Brown, and DH Pankow, �The empirical modeling of a Lysholm screw expander,�Proc.,Intersoc.

Kovacevic, �Power Recovery from Low Cost Two-Phase Expanders,�Expanders GRCAnnual Meeting, San Diego: 2001.[3] /~ra601/grc2005.pdfOrganic Rankine CycleT he organic Rankine cycle (ORC) applies the principle of the steam Rankine cycle, but uses organic working fluids with low boiling points, instead of steam, to recover heat from a lower temperature heat source. Fig. 1 below shows a schematic of an ORC and its process plotted in a T-s diagram in Fig.2. The cycle consists of an expansion turbine, a condenser, a pump, a boiler, and a superheater (provided that superheat is needed).Fig.1 A schematic of an organic Rankine cycleFig.2 The process of a organic Rankine using R11 as the working fluidThe working fluid of an organic Rankine cycle is very importmant. Pure working fluids such as HCFC123 (CHCl2CF3), PF5050 (CF3(CF2)3CF3), HFC-245fa(CH3CH2CHF2), HFC-245ca (CF3CHFCH2F), isobutene ((CH3)2C=CH2), n-pentane and aromatic hydrocarbons, have been studied for organic Rankine cycles. Fluid mixtures were also proposed for organic Rankine cycles [1-8]. The organic working fluids have many different characteristics than water [9]. The slope of the saturation curve of a working fluid in a T-S diagram can be positive (e.g. isopentane), negative (e.g. R22) or vertical (e.g. R11), and the fluids are accordingly called �wet�, �dry� or�isentropic�, respectively. Wet fluids, like water, usually need to be superheated, while many organic fluids, which may be dry or isentropic, don�t need superheating. Another advantage of organic working fluids is that the turbine built for ORCs typically requires only a single-stage expander, resulting in a simpler, more economical system in terms of capital costs and maintenance [10].Examples--Organic Rankine cycle power plantAmong all these thermodynamic cycles for low-grade heat-to-power conversion, organic Rankine cycle is so far the most commercially developed one. Both large scales and small scales power plants and units can be found in operation.Arizona Public Service Company (APS) completed construction of a solar trough organic Rankine cycle power plant in the United Stats in 2007, which is the first new organic Rankine cycle power plant built in the past two decades, and the first power plant that combines solar though technology with an organic Rankine cycle power block (See Fig.3).Fig. 3 Organic Rankine cycle power plant in Saguaro, ArizonaFigure source: /.../index.php?content_id=51Turbine is the most important part in a organic Rankine cycle system. Ormat and Infinity are among the leading companies that specialize in turbine design and manufacture for organic Rankine cycles. The turbine used in the above mentioned organic Rankine cycle power plant in Saguaro, Arizona is from Ormat International. Beside the large scale systems, portable system for decentralized users are also available. Below is a10 kilowatt organic Rankine cycle power generation unit.A unit like this could be very useful for remote areas.Fig. 4 A portable organic Rankine cycle power generation systemReferences[1] V.

Fig.1 and Fig.2 show the configuration and process of a CO2 supercritical Rankine cycle ina T-s diagram, respectively.Fig. 1 The configuration of a supercritical Rankine cycleFig. 2 The process of a supercritcalRankine cycle using CO2 as the working fluid(a→b→c→d→e→f→g) [1]The heating process of a supercritical Rankine cycle does not pass through a distinct two-phase region like a conventional Rankine or organic Rankine cycle thus getting a better thermal match in the boiler with less irreversibility.The transformation between liquid CO2 and supercritical CO2 is demonstrated in the following video by British chemist MartynPoliakoff from University of Nottingham.Chen et al. [1-3] did a comparative study of the carbon dioxide supercritical power cycle and compared it with an organic Rankine cycle using R123 as the working fluid in a waste heat recovery application. It shows that a CO2 supercritical power cycle has higher system efficiency than an ORC when taking into account the behavior of the heat transfer between the heat source and the working fluid. The CO2 cycle shows no pinch limitation in the heat exchanger. Zhang et al. [4-11] has also conducted research on the supercritical CO2 power cycle. Experiments revealed that the CO2 can be heated up to 187℃ and the power generation efficiency was 8.78% to 9.45% [7] and the COP for the overall outputs from the cycle was 0.548 and 0.406, respectively, on a typical summer and winter day in Japan [5].Organic fluids like isobutene, propane, propylene, difluoromethane and R-245fa [12] have also been suggested for supercritical Rankine cycle. It was found that supercritical fluids can maximize the efficiency of the system. However, detailed studies on the use of organic working fluids in supercritical Rankine cycles have not been widely published.There is no supercritical Rankine cycle in operation up to now. However, it is becoming a new direction due to its advantages in thermal efficiency and simplicity in configuration.References[1] Y. Chen, P. Lundqvist, A. Johansson, and P.

The bed apparent density( a)was calculated by dividing the feed mass by the vessel volume.The porosity of the bed was calculated as:(1− a/ t).2.2.Overall extraction curves determinationA laboratory scale equipment(Applied Separations,model7071, Allentown,PA)equipped with a290mL extraction vessel was used for determining the OECs of clove and sugarcane residue at bench scale.The solvent used was carbon dioxide(99.9%purity,Gama Gases,São Bernardo do Campo,Brazil).These OECs were deter-mined in duplicate and used as reference for scaling-up the process to pilot scale.For clove,operational conditions selected were313K/15MPa, according to previous results[25].For sugarcane residue,extrac-tion conditions selected were333K/35MPa,according to results of Shintaku[26].The separator consisted of a50mL glass vial immersed in ice bath at environment pressure.All experimental data are presented in Table1.The overall extraction curves obtained were adjusted to three straight lines,namely CER(constant extraction rate),FER(falling extraction rate)and DC(diffusion controlled)periods,according to the method described by Rodrigues et al.[21]and Meireles[11].2.3.Scale-up studyThe scale-up criterion adopted consisted in maintaining solvent mass to feed mass ratio(S/F)constant.The OECs obtained from lab-oratory scale experiments were used as reference;the operational conditions were the same,except for the solventflow rate,which was calculated using this scale-up criterion,so that S/F∼3.6was maintained from LS1(in130min of360min)to PS1,PS2and PS 3,and S/F∼15was maintained from LS2(in180min of360min) to PS4.All experimental data are presented in Table1.A pilot scale equipment(Thar Technologies,model SFE-2×5LF-2-FMC,Pittsburgh,PA)equipped with two5.15L extraction vessels and three1L separators displayed in series was used for scale-up experiments;only one extractor was used.The solvent used was carbon dioxide(99.0%purity,Gama Gases,São Bernardo do Campo, Brazil).All experiments were conducted in duplicate.Differently from what occurs in bench equipments,in the pilot equipment it is not possible to collect the extracts continuously during the kinetics experiments.It is necessary to interrupt the solventflow,and then depressurize the separators while maintain-ing the extractor pressurized,so that the extract can be collected; after this procedure,the extraction can be restarted until the next collection point.Because of this technical limitation,few points were determined at pilot scale.Nonetheless,those inter-mediary interruptions do not interfere in the extraction yield [36].2.4.Chemical analysis of the extractsThe chemical composition of clove and sugarcane residue extracts was determined using a GC-FID(Shimadzu,model G 17A,Kyoto,Japan)equipped with a silica capillary column DB-5 (30m×0.25mm×0.25m,J&W Scientific,Folsom,CA).The car-rier gas was helium at1.1mL/min.For clove extracts,1m of the extract at5mg/mL dilution in ethyl acetate was injected.The sample split ratio was1:20.The col-umn was heated from333K to519K,at a3K/min rate;the injector and detector temperatures were493K and513K,respectively.The identification of the compounds was based on comparison between compounds retention indexes and eugenol(Sigma,lot17H0239,St. Louis,MO),eugenyl acetate(Sigma–Aldrich,lot02312JE-317,St. Louis,MO),-caryophyllene(Sigma,lot38H2503,St.Louis,MO) and␣-humulene(Sigma,lot97H2503,St.Louis,MO)retention indexes.For sugarcane residue extracts,1m of the extract at5mg/mL dilution in dichloromethane was injected.The sample split ratio was1:20.The column was heated from423K to573K,at a 5K/min rate,and kept at this temperature for15min;the injec-tor and detector temperatures were523K and573K,respectively. The identification of the compounds was based on comparison between compounds retention indexes and1-octacosanol(Sigma, lot095K5205,St.Louis,MO),stigmasterol(Sigma–Aldrich,lot 044K5320,St.Louis,MO)and-sitosterol(Sigma–Aldrich,lot 107K3798,St.Louis,MO)retention indexes.The quantification was done using external standard calibration curves.3.Results and discussionTable1presents raw material characterization and operational data of the experiments.3.1.Overall extraction curves at bench scaleFig.1shows the OECs obtained for clove and sugarcane residue SFE at bench and pilot scales.The total yields obtained for cloveJ.M.Prado et al./J.of Supercritical Fluids56 (2011) 231–237233Table1Bed characterization and operational data of kinetic experiments.Clove Sugarcane residueLab scale1(LS1)Pilot scale1(PS1)Pilot scale2(PS2)Pilot scale3(PS3)Lab scale2(LS2)Pilot scale4(PS4) Raw material characterizationMoisture(%)a8.6±0.48.6±0.48.6±0.48.6±0.4<0.6<0.6d p(10−4m)9.088.848.848.847.697.69t(kg/m3)b1422±21389±141389±141389±141731±711731±71 Experimental dataM(g)a226±43434±12809±12803±387.7±0.71339±29 a(kg/m3)a779±14670±1760±1742±16302±2260±6 Porosity0.4520.5180.4520.4660.8260.850H b/d b 2.31 5.94 4.26 4.35 2.31 5.94T in extractor(K)313313313313333333P in extractor(MPa)151515153535T in S1(K)278313308308278323P in S1(MPa)0.018990.0110T in S2(K)–303303303–303P in S2(MPa)–555–7T in S3(K)–293293293–313P in S3(MPa)–333–3Static period(min)30303030––Q CO2(10−3kg/s)a0.096±0.002 1.45±0.01 1.2±0.1 3.0±0.10.120±0.004 1.84±0.04S/F9.2±0.3 3.59±0.01 3.65±0.02 3.62±0.0230±214.4±0.4 Time(min)36013013052360180t RES(min)182********v(m/s)0.040.170.140.360.050.22d p–particles mean diameter; t–particles true density;M–raw material mass; a–bed apparent density;H b/d b–bed height to diameter ratio;T–temperature;P–pressure;S1–separator1;S2–separator2;S3–separator3;Q CO2–CO2flow rate;S/F–solvent to feed ratio;t RES–solvent residence time;v–solvent superficial velocity.a Values presented with amplitude of two determinations.b Values presented with standard deviation of10repetitions.Table2Kinetic parameters of clove and sugarcane SFE process.Parameter Clove(LS1)Sugarcane residue(LS2)t CER(min)4246t FER(min)145133M CER(10−7kg/s)58.7 3.80Y CER(10−3kg extract/kg CO2)61.2 3.16R CER(%,d.b.)7.74 1.32R total(%,d.b.)14.9 2.64t CER–constant extraction rate period;t FER–falling extraction rate period;M CER–mass-transfer rate during CER period;Y CER–mass ratio of solute in the supercritical phase at the bed outlet during CER period;R CER–yield achieved during CER period; R total–total yield;d.b.–dry basis.LS1and sugarcane residue LS2experiments were14.9%and 2.64%,respectively,for360min of extraction.The kinetic param-eters adjusted to the OECs are presented in Table2.Shintaku[33]demonstrated that the raw material quality is a determinant factor on global yield of sugarcane residue.His results for333K/35MPa varied between3%and6%,approximately, depending on the raw material origin.The kinetic parameters adjusted to LS2OEC are in agreement with the values obtained by this author.M CER and Y CER values were one order of magni-tude lower for sugarcane residue than for clove,indicating that SFE process for sugarcane residue is slower,possibly due to solubility limitations of sugarcane wax in supercritical CO2.3.2.Scale-upFor clove and sugarcane residue,a15-fold scale-up from bench to pilot scale was achieved(LS1and LS2to PS1and PS4,respec-tively,Fig.1).The shapes of the OECs reveal that the simple criterion used(S/F constant)was successful;the OECs presented similar shapes,although pilot OECs presented higher yield(20%higher at 130min for clove and15%higher at180min for sugarcane residue). This result is different from the ones presented by Del Valle et al.[2]and Kotnik et al.[3],who obtained lower yield for pilot scale experiments.Some factors may have influenced this result,such as the co-extraction of water,the higher solvent superficial veloc-ity causing mechanical dragging,and the higher efficiency of the separators in recovering the extract at pilotscale.246810121416060120180240300360420Yield(%,d.b.)Time (min)0.00.51.01.52.02.53.03.5060120180240300360420Yield(%,d.b.)Time (min)Fig.1.OECs for clove(a)and sugarcane residue(b)at

2(empty symbols)and PS 3(filled symbols):total extract ( , ),S 1(♦, ),S 2( ,᭹)and S 3( ).3.2.1.Co-extraction of waterIt was noticed,especially after 100min for clove,and during the entire process for sugarcane residue,the presence of water in the extracts recovered in the separators;for sugarcane residue it was found mostly in S 3.This effect was not observed in the lab scale OECs,not because it was not present,but because the amount of water extracted is low,and,the lowest the mass of extract recov-ered,the lowest the possibility of seeing it at naked eye.Badalyan et al.[37]reported the co-extraction of water with ginger extract at bench scale,and Berna et al.[38]suggested that phenomena apparently inexistent and/or insignificant at lab scale may become relevant as the process scale increases.The yields reported in Fig.1include the water co-extracted.For sugarcane residue,when disregarding the yield in S 3,where mostly water was recovered,total extract yield falls to 2.46%at 180min for PS 4,which is comparable to 2.40%yield obtained for LS 2for this same time.Nevertheless,the water could be separated from the extracts by density difference,and other results obtained in our laboratory for scale-up of grape seed oil and lemon verbena show that even when water is separated from the extract,the yield is still higher at pilot scale [36,39].3.2.2.Solvent superficial velocityThe scale-up criterion adopted implied in increasing the solvent flow rate in 15times from bench to pilot scale.Although the S /F proportion was kept constant,in absolute values the solvent flow rate was 15times higher in pilot scale.Considering the different bed geometries,the superficial velocity of the solvent was approx-imately 4times higher for the pilot scale experiments than for the bench ones (Table 1).This fact could have influenced the mechan-ical dragging of both extract and water by the solvent stream,independently from solubility of the compounds in supercritical CO 2,increasing thus the extraction yield.To assess this hypothesis,two other experiments were con-ducted at pilot scale for clove (PS 2and PS 3).From PS 2to PS 3,the solvent superficial velocity was increased in 2.5times for the same S /F ratio.From Fig.2the influence of this parameter on the yield is unclear,since PS 3seems to have higher yield than PS 2,but some values are within error bars.Similar behavior,of slightly higher yield with solvent flow rate increase from 0.75×10−5kg/s to 2.56×10−5kg/s,was found for clove at bench scale [21,40].There-fore,the influence of solvent superficial velocity is still unclear from our experimental data.3.2.3.Efficiency of the separatorsIn the bench equipment the depressurization occurs from 15to 0.1MPa in one stage,and this expansion implies in increasing the volumetric solvent flow rate,which may lead to extract loss in the solvent stream by mechanical dragging.Takeuchi et al.[24]simu-lated clove extract loss in the CO 2stream,and observed that up to 1.1%of the extract is lost in the exit stream when depressurization is done until ambient pressure.These authors concluded that the highest is the separator pressure,the lowest is the extract loss by dragging.Therefore,the precipitation efficiency of the three sepa-rators displayed in series may also have influenced the higher yield obtained in the pilot equipment.A deeper study of the factors presented is necessary to deter-mine which of them,and on which magnitude,influence the SFE process in the pilot equipment so that the yields are higher than the ones found in bench scale.The simple criterion adopted in the present study proved to be more efficient than the complex models proposed in literature for SFE scale-up [2,3],and the higher yields achieved were in agreement with equipment manufacturers’information.3.3.Separation stepFigs.2and 3present the yields of each separator for pilot scale experiments.For PS 1,total extraction yield was 15.11%(d.b.),from which 48.9%were obtained in S 1,50.7%in S 2,and 0.5%in S 3(Fig.3a).According to phase equilibrium of clove oil +CO 2,at 313K/8.06MPa,same operational conditions of S 1,the solubility is 1.10×10−2kg oil/kg CO 2[22],which represents a 82%reduc-tion from oil concentration in the extractor outlet (6.12×10−2kg extract/kg CO 2during CER period).However,only 58.3%of the extract was precipitated in S 1at 40min,which is within the CER period.This value is lower than expected when phase equilibrium data are used for prediction.A possible explanation is the mechanical dragging of the extract by the solvent stream,which is related to the hydrodynamics of the process.However,it may have occurred a more complex situ-ation.The separator temperature and pressure control is not very accurate.Observing the phase equilibrium curves [22],it can be noticed that despite presenting a common liquid–vapor phases’separation at 313K/8MPa,when it comes to 308K/8MPa,there is a liquid–liquid–vapor equilibrium,for a temperature variation of only 5K [22].Moreover,Cheng et al.[41]found 90%of solubil-ity reduction of eugenol in CO 2at around 8.4MPa for temperature increase from 308K to 318K.Thus,it is possible that a non-homogeneous temperature profile in the separator,at 7.5–8.5MPa,would result in three phases equilibrium inside it.Another interesting point to be noticed is that despite eugenol being the main compound of clove extract,representing over 70%of it,when comparing solubility data of eugenol +CO 2[41]to clove extract +CO 2[22],it can be clearly seen that the interactions of all the compounds present in the extract have influence on phase equilibrium behavior of the mixture,being even responsible for an extra liquid phase appearance.Therefore,more studies on phase equilibrium of complex extracts obtained from biological matrices are of great interest for developing separation step of SFE process.The yield in S 3was very low,representing only 0.5%of total extract.It indicates that the operational conditions of S 2could be efficiently used in an industrial process with recirculation of solvent,remembering that the highest the pressure on the last separator,the lowest the cost with solvent recompression [24].To evaluate the effect of solvent flow rate on mechanical drag-ging during separation step,one can report to Fig.2.For PS 2there was no extract recovered in S 3,but for PS 3experiment around 2%of total extract was recovered in S 3;for both experiments separation conditions were the same (Table 1).This indicates that with

of mechanical dragging of the oil compounds by the solvent stream.As for PS 4,S 1,S 2and S 3yields were 67%,18%and 15%of total extraction yield (Fig.3b).Differently from clove,there is no infor-mation on sugarcane wax solubility in CO 2,therefore,more studied of this system are needed to help optimize separation step.3.4.Chemical composition of the extractsFig.4presents the chemical composition of clove LS 1OEC.Eugenol concentration is approximately constant,while the con-centration of the other compounds identified gradually decreases.After 200min the total identified compounds decreases,indicating that during DC period more heavy compounds are co-extracted.Therefore,if the interest is on recovering eugenol +eugenyl acetate due to their antioxidant activity [14],the extraction up to FER period is more suitable.Sugarcane wax is a white powder,which means it is read-ily usable in market.Fig.5presents the three compounds that were quantified in LS 2extracts.Octacosanol is the compound responsible for the hypocholesterolemic effect of sugarcane wax,and,therefore,the main target compound.It is moreconcen-Fig.5.Chemical composition of sugarcane

the point of view of extract quality,the SFE of sugarcane residue does not need to be extended over 120min.When analyzing yield data (Fig.1)together with chemical com-position (Figs.4and 5),the decision on how long the SFE cycle should last is more precise.For clove,extraction up to 180min is justifiable from the quality point of view,while from the yield point of view,this time could be even shorter,due to rapid extraction rate decrease after FER period (145min).The same applies to sugarcane residue;from quality point of view,the extract is more concen-trated on the target compound up to 120min,which is within the FER period;during this period over 80%of total octacosanol is recovered.A cost analysis could help decide which would be the best batch time for each raw material [42],after extract quality has been confirmed up to 180min and 120min,for clove and sugarcane residue,respectively.Rosa and Meireles [42]developed a simple method for estimating the manufacturing cost

in different separators was noticed for PS1(Table3).Color variations were observed;the extract collected in S2presented a light yellow color,while the extract collected in S1presented a darker brownish-yellow color.The difference was more accentuated up to70min of extraction,and then,all the extracts presented a darker color. Pale yellow clove oil presents higher commercial value[44].There-fore,clove oil may split into two or more commercially different products when submitted to fractional separation.Table4presents the chemical composition of the extracts obtained for PS4.Octacosanol and phytosterols concentrations are higher in S1than S2up to120min of process,therefore the frac-tional separation was successful.The GC analysis was unable to detect compounds in S3extracts.4.ConclusionsThe simple scale-up criterion adopted(S/F ratio constant)was successfully used for scaling-up overall extraction curves of clove and sugarcane residue from290mL to5.15L(15-fold scale-up). The OECs presented similar shape and yields slightly higher in pilot scale than in laboratory scale(20%higher for clove and 15%higher for sugarcane residue).These data corroborate man-ufacturers’information,that yield increases with scale increase, contradicting,therefore,open literature data.This criterion can be easily used to help developing SFE technology at industrial scale. Moreover,the study of separation step was shown to be relevant when optimizing the whole SFE process at pilot scale,since dif-ferent products can be obtained by manipulating the separators operation conditions.In clove SFE,products of different colors,and, therefore,of different commercial values,were obtained.In sugar-cane residue SFE the target compounds were concentrated in the first separator.AcknowledgementsThe authors thank Centroflora and Centro de Tecnologia Canavieira for raw material donation;this work wasfinancially supported by FAPESP(2005/60485-1).J.M.Prado thanks FAPESP for the Ph.D.assistantship(07/03817-7).References[1]M.Perrut,Industrial applications of supercriticalfluids:development statusand scale-up issues,in:I Iberoamerican Conference on Supercritical Fluids, Iguassu Falls-Brazil,April10–13,2007,Full paper available in PROSCIBA2007 CD-ROM.[2]J.M.Del Valle,O.Rivera,M.Mattea,L.Ruetsch,J.Daghero,A.Flores,Supercrit-ical CO2processing of pretreated rosehip seeds:effect of process scale on oil extraction kinetics,Journal of Supercritical Fluids31(2004)159–174.[3]P.Kotnik,M.ˇSkerget,ˇZ.Knez,Supercriticalfluid extraction of chamomileflowerheads:comparison with conventional extraction,kinetics and scale-up,Journal of Supercritical Fluids43(2007)192–198.[4]J.Martínez,P.T.V.Rosa,M.A.A.Meireles,Extraction of clove and vetiver oils withsupercritical carbon dioxide:modeling and simulation,The Open Chemical Engineering Journal1(2007)1–7.[5]N.Mezzomo,J.Martínez,S.R.S.Ferreira,Supercriticalfluid extraction of peach(Prunus persica)almond oil:kinetics,mathematical modeling and scale-up, Journal of Supercritical Fluids51(2009)10–16.[6]R.N.Carvalho Jr.,L.S.Moura,P.T.V.Rosa,M.A.A.Meireles,Supercriticalfluidextraction from rosemary(Rosmarinus officinalis):kinetic data,extract’s global yield,composition,and antioxidant activity,Journal of Supercritical Fluids35 (2005)197–204.[7]L.S.Moura,R.N.Carvalho Jr.,M.B.Stefanini,L.C.Ming,M.A.A.Meireles,Supercriticalfluid extraction from fennel(Foeniculum vulgare):global yield, composition and kinetic data,Journal of Supercritical Fluids35(2005) 212–219.[8]T.M.Takeuchi,M.A.A.Meireles,Study of bed geometry influence on the kineticsof supercriticalfluid extraction of Achyrocline satureioides,in:I Iberoamerican Conference on Supercritical Fluids,Foz do Iguac¸u,Brazil,April10–13,2007,Full paper available in PROSCIBA2007CD-ROM(SC-027).[9]X.Han,L.Cheng,R.Zhang,J.Bi,Extraction of safflower seed oil by supercriticalCO2,Journal of Food Engineering92(2009)370–376.[10]E.Alonso,F.J.Cantero,J.García,M.J.Cocero,Scale-up process of supercriticalextraction with adsorption of solute onto active carbon.Application to soil remediation,Journal of Supercritical Fluids24(2002)123–135.[11]M.A.A.Meireles,Extraction of bioactive compounds from Latin Americanplants,in:J.Martinez(Ed.),Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Nutraceuticals and Bioactive Compounds,CRC Press–Taylor&Francis Group,Boca Raton,2008,pp.243-274.[12]E.Reverchon,C.Marrone,Supercritical extraction of clove bud essential oil:isolation and mathematical modeling,Chemical Engineering Science52(1997) 3421–3428.[13]A.Alqareer,A.Alyahya,L.Andersson,The effect of clove and benzocaine versusplacebo as topical anesthetics,Journal of Dentistry34(2006)747–750.
