dc.description.abstractWe developed a methodology to study the extraction of high-value solutes directly from suspensions of finely disrupted substrates. For that, we modelled the high-pressure phase equilibrium for the ternary (CO2 + ethanol + water) system using experimental literature data. Different compositions of hydroethanolic mixture and CO2 were loaded into an extraction vessel set at 30-35 MPa and 40-50 degrees C during static extraction, and a gaseous mixture with the composition of the CO2-rich gaseous phase in the extraction vessel was continuously fed during dynamic extraction. Losses of the fed hydroethanolic mixture occurred mainly during dynamic extraction (10-30 wt%) and were properly distributed to account for actual flows and compositions of experimental streams. Mostly, equilibrium conditions were reached following about 1 h of the 2-h dynamic extraction, and good reproducibility was achieved. In conclusion, equilibrium is reached in which two phases coexist in equilibrium within the extraction vessel: a water-rich liquid phase and a CO2-rich gaseous phase.
