Fractionation of Lipids in a Static Mixer and Packed Column Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

摘要: Fractionation of shark liver oil and olive deodorizer distillate using supercritical carbon dioxide was carried out in a laboratory-scale static mixer laboratory- pilot-scale packed columns. Both lipid mixtures contain squalene, which the desired end product. The separation factor for squalene from high, column gave degree superior to that mixer. mass transfer performance similar recovery distillate. low, more than one processing step required before high purity could be obtained. pressure drop over measured correlated against specific energy consumption. For all operating conditions, less 1 bar and, hence, not significant industrial-scale plant design. Literature correlations f...
