SFE 100L-1000L – Supercritical Fluid Extraction System 100L-1000L

The SFE is versatile “multi-solvent” extraction equipment with precise control of process parameters for analytical purposes. Equipment on skid.

Main applications:

  • Solid extraction
  • Liquid fraction (column)
  • Biomass
  • Granulation spray

Pump CO2
  • The flow rate varies according to the size and requirements of the extraction vessel (from 100kg/h to 3T/h).
  • The pressure varies from 0 to 1000 bar.
Extraction flask
  • One heated extraction vessel or multiple vessels (80L / 100L / 200L / 500L) with extraction basket.
  • Other volumes and adaptations to other SCF processes are available upon request.
Multi-component extraction
  • For extraction/collection of extracts.
Discharge tank
  • The safety end vent valve passes through the tank prior to discharge.
CO2 Buffer Tank
  • Designed for operations up to 100 bar and 100°C with level control.
  • CO2 savings after each batch.
Cooling and Heating Utility
  • Air-cooled chiller, sub-cooler, condenser, preheater and evaporator.
Operation display and control
  • Automation with PLC.
  • Batch cycle optimization (with multiple extraction vessels).
Additional options
  • Solvent replenishment pump: Flow varies according to requirements.
  • Column: Liquid fractional column module.
