Updated supercritical fluid extractor
Supercritical Fluid Technologies
The model SFT-110, the latest addition to the SFE product line, builds upon the features of its predecessor, the SFT-100.
Supercritical fluid extraction has become a popular alternative to traditional extraction methods that use organic solvents.
Fast, efficient extraction of a variety of materials may be achieved using supercritical carbon dioxide.
The use of dual sapphire syringe pump technology, integrated pre-heaters, and precise flow control provides the precision required to achieve these goals.
Process parameters developed in the laboratory are the key to the successful scale-up to pilot or production scale equipment.
Applications include:
- Natural product extraction
- Extraction of flavous and fragrances
- Chemical and polymer synthesis
- Process development
The redesigned restrictor valve with integrated micrometer allows for very precise flow control, which is essential for demanding applications.
A removable oven lid and large side panel allow the user easy access to the high pressure vessel. An indicator light on the SFT-10 pump module alerts the user to proper operation of the Peltier pre-cooler, ensuring CO2 is maintained in the liquid state.
