[Technological study on the supercritical-CO2 fluid extraction of Curcuma longa oils].
This paper first reports technological study on the extraction of Curcuma longa oils by supercritical-CO2 fluid, mainly studies the influence of pressure, temperature, flow rate of CO2 and time on the yield of the oils, determines optimum technology of extracting the oils, analyzes chemical constituents extracted, compares the oils from SFE-CO2 and SD technology, studies industrial test on the SF-CO2 extraction. The results shows pressure and temperature are more important factors of influence; the optimum technological condition is the extracted pressure 25 MPa and temperature 45 degrees C, isolated pressure I 12.5 MPa and temperature I 60 degrees C, isolated pressure II 6MPa and temperature II 38 degrees C, CO2 flow rate 9 Kg/Kg.h, and extracted time 2 h; the constituents from SFE-CO2 and SD methods are identical, but their content has some difference; SFE-CO2 technology is better than that of SD, which is high yield shorter time, etc.; the industrial production of the oils with SFE-CO2 method is available.
