Extraction of Nutraceutical Components from Algae Using Supercritical CO2

Nadine Igl-Schmid, Josef Schulmeyr, Andreas Wuzik

Supercritical CO2 extraction pressuresDuring food processing organic or inorganic liquids are conventionally used for separation purposes. While supercritical CO2 extraction is increasingly applied as an alternative at industrial scale, details of processing  are critically important to preserve functional properties of the ingredients, for example carotenoids in nutritional products or dietary supplements. The authors describe algae species which they find best suited for carotenoid extraction and their experience with extraction from sensitive biomass at different pressures with varying outcomes of  supercritical CO2 extraction.
