Effects of co-solvent polarity, citric acid, pressure, temperature, run time, and co-solvent ratio on extraction of major flavonoids from Lonicera Flos were investigated using supercritical fluid $CO_{2}(SF-CO_{2})$. HPLC analysis revealed addition of pure methanol resulted in low extraction yield of major flavonoids, luteoloin (Lu), Quercetin (Qu), Apigenin (Ap). Under same condition, as co-solvent polarity increased, yields of major flavonoids increased gradually, At optimum co-solvent extraction condirion of 60% aqueous methanol (10%, v/v), yields of Lu, Qu, and Ap were 42.09, 28.18, and 3.49 mg/100 g, respectively. Addition of citric acid to 60% aqueous methanol gave higher, with addition of 1% citrie acid resulting in highest yields of 63.2 (Lu), 39.35 (Qu), and 5.79 (Ap) mg/100 g. Optimum extraction conditions of major flavonoids were 200 bar, $50^{\circ}C$, 60 min, and $CO_{2}$-methanol-water(20: 1.8: 1.2).

We measured cloud points of Poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) in various solvents using the high-pressure variable volume view cell apparatus. The solvents used for dissolving PMMA were chlorodifluoromethane (HCFC-22), dimethylether (DME), 1,1,1-trifluoroethane (HFC-143a), 1,1-difluoroethane (HFC-152a) and 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a), and the effect of $CO_2$ concentration on the phase behavior of $PMMA+HCFC-22+CO_2$ system and $PMMA+DME+CO_2$ system was observed. PMMA was dissolved well in HCFC-22 from about 340 K, 5MPa and in DME from about 300 K, 28MPa. However, PMMA was not dissolved at all up to 423.15 K, 160MPa in the other fluorine compound such as HFC-l43a, HFC-152a and HFC-134a. PMMA+HCFC-22, $PMMA+HCFC-22+CO_2$ and PMMA+DME systems exhibit the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior, however, $PMMA+DME+CO_2$ system exhibits the upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behavior. In the $CO_2$ mixture, the cloud point pressure of PMMA was increased dramatically proportional to the amount of $CO_2$ added, and from this result, it was known that $CO_2$ could be used as an antisolvent for fabricating PMMA nano-particles. And the cloud point of PMMA could be controlled by changing the concentration of $CO_2$.

CO₂ geological storage is currently considered as the most stable and effective technology for greenhouse gas reduction. The saline formations for CO₂ geological storage are generally located at a depth of more than 800 m where CO₂ can be stored in a supercritical state, and an extensive impermeable cap rock that prevents CO₂ leakage to the surface should be distributed above the saline formations. Trough analysis of seismic and well data, we identified the basalt flow structure for potential CO₂ storage where saline formation is overlain by basalt cap rock around PZ-1 exploration well in the Southern Continental Shelf of Korea. To evaluate CO₂ storage capacity of the saline formation, total porosity and CO₂ density are calculated based on well logging data of PZ-1 well. We constructed a 3D geological grid model with a certain size in the x, y and z axis directions for volume estimates of the saline formation, and performed a property modeling to assign total porosity to the geological grid. The estimated average CO₂ geological storage capacity evaluated by the U.S. DOE method for the saline formation covered by the basalt cap rock is 84.17 Mt of CO₂(ranges from 42.07 to 143.79 Mt of CO₂).
