Yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis muscle oil was extracted using an environmental friendly solvent, supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-$CO_2$), in a semi-batch flow extraction process. SC-$CO_2$ was applied at temperature $35^{\circ}C$ to $45^{\circ}C$ and $150^{\circ}C$ to $250^{\circ}C$ bar of pressure. The flow rate of $CO_2$ (27.79 g/min) was constant throughout the entire 1.5 h extraction period. The oil extraction yield was influenced by the physical properties of SC-$CO_2$ at different temperatures and pressures. The extracted oil was analyzed by gas chromatography to determine the fatty acid composition. According to our results, the SC-$CO_2$ extracted oil was high in eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. In addition, the SC-$CO_2$ extracted oil showed greater stability than n-hexane extracted oil based on the peroxide value and acid value. Thus, the quality of yellow croaker oil obtained by SC-$CO_2$ extraction was slightly higher than that of oil obtained by n-hexane extraction.

The objective of this study was to reduce negative elements such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from fulvic acid using supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCO_2$) and to measure concentration and chromaticity of fulvic acid before and after treatment of $SCO_2$. Fulvic acid was treated at different experimental conditions; pressures of 100, 120 and 150 bar at $40^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. The composition of VOCs from fulvic acid was evaluated by GC-MS analysis, and the concentration was quantitatively analyzed using UV-spectrometer from fulvic acid at different experimental conditions. Also, the chromaticity of fulvic acid was evaluated using spectrophotometer. Though concentration and chromaticity of fulvic acid were not nearly changed, the VOCs from fulvic acid was remarkably decreased at 150 bar, $40^{\circ}C$ and 2 h. Reduction of VOCs through the $SCO_2$ is expected to contribute to quality improvement of fulvic acid.

Supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCO_2$) extraction was used to recover concentrated proteins and to remove lipids and odor causing compounds from anchovy. Engraulis japonicus $SCO_2$ was used as the solvent for extraction, which was performed in a semi-batch flow reactor. The experimental conditions used were pressure, 15-25 MPa; temperature, $40-60^{\circ}C$ and sample size, 500 ${\mu}m$. The proteins obtained under these conditions performed well in a sensory evaluation; moreover, effective lipids and odor removal was achieved. The stability and characteristics of the proteins recovered with different solvents were also evaluated. The samples were sterilized by processing with $SCO_2$. Escherichia coli was not detected after storage for several days. The sensory characteristics were found to be superior to those of a sample produced by hexane extraction. Thus, the protein concentrate was obtained at $60^{\circ}C$ and 25 MPa was deemed valuable as a foodstuff.

An aqueous ribose-cysteine model system (initial pH 5.6) was conventionally heated to the same browning at varying temperatures ($120-180^{\circ}C$), supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-$CO_2$, 20 MPa) was also applied on the same matrices for same periods at each temperature and about 20% reduction of the absorbance at 420 nm was observed as compared with sole thermal treatment. The headspace volatiles from Maillard reaction mixtures were analyzed by solid-phase microextraction (SPME) in combination with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and predominated with sulfur containing compounds, such as thienothiophenes, polysulfur alicyclics, thiols, and disulfides. Reaction temperature exhibited complex effects on volatiles formation and those effects became further complicated by the SC-$CO_2$ treatment. The formation of noncarbonyl polysulfur heterocyclic compounds and thienothiophenes was generally favored at high temperatures. Most volatiles were inhibited in SC-$CO_2$ as compared with thermal treatment alone, however, the well-known meaty aromatic compounds, such as thiols and disulfides, were obviously enhanced.

초임계 이산화탄소를 이용하여 다공성 고분자 모노리스를 제조하는 실험적 연구를 행하여, 단량체의 종류와 중합반응 조건들이 생성되는 고분자 모노리스의 물성에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 중합반응은 반응이 진행되는 동안 반응물의 상변화를 관찰할 수 있도록 사파이어 창을 부착한 고압 반응기 내에서 진행되었으며, 단량체의 농도가 매우 낮은 경우를 제외하고는 반응기 내부형태와 동일한 형상의 건조하고 다공성인 고분자 모노리스를 얻었을 수 있었다. 생성되는 고분자 모노리스의 비 표면적은 반응혼합물 중의 단량체 농도와 중합반응 압력에 따라 증가하였으며, 기계적 강도는 경도 보강제 MMA를 첨가하여 증대시킬 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 초임계이산화탄소 분위기 하에서 고분자섬유인 PTT(poly(trimethylene terephthalate))와 PET(poly(ethylene terephthalate))에의 분산염료 C. I. Disperse Yellow 54의 평형수착량을 온도와 압력, 그리고 시간에 따라 측정하였다. PTT와 PET 모두 온도와 압력이 증가함에 따라 염료의 수착량이 증가하였으나, 압력에 따른 수착량의 증가속도는 감소하였다. 또한 PTT가 PET보다 훨씬 더 큰 염료의 수착량을 나타냈으나, PTT와 PET 모두 같은 온도와 압력에서의 수착량의 증가속도는 시간이 지남에 따라 감소하였다.

In order to obtain 'value added products' from polypropylene (PP)/waste ground rubber tire powder (WGRT) composites, PP/WGRT microcellular foams were prepared via supercritical carbon dioxide. The effects of blend composition and processing condition on the cell size, cell density and relative density of PP/WGRT micro-cellular composites were studied. The results indicated that the microcellular structure was dependent on blend composition and processing condition. An increased content of waste ground rubber tire powder (WGRT) and maleic anhydride-grafted styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS-g-MA) reduced the cell size, and raised the cell density and relative density, whereas a higher saturation pressure increased the cell size, and reduced the cell density and relative density. With increasing saturation temperature, the cell size increased and the relative density decreased, whereas the cell density initially increased and then decreased.

스와프는 철강 제조 공정 중에 발생되는 금속 부산물로서 연마유의 함량이 10%이상 되므로 국내에서 지정폐기물로 분류된다. 연마유가 함유된 스와프를 재활용하기 위하여 초임계 이산화탄소를 이용하여 재생하였고, 온도(313.15K-323.15K), 압력(10MPa-30MPa)의 실험 조건이 연마유 추출 효율에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 초임계 이산화탄소의 압력이 높을수록 높은 추출 효율을 보였고, 같은 압력을 기준으로 하였을 때는 온도가 높을수록 빠른 시간 내에 추출 공정이 완료됨을 확인하였다. 본 실험에서는 선형 탈착 kinetics가정의 단일 매개 변수 모델을 사용하여 재생 효율을 예측하였고, 이는 실험 결과와 비교적 잘 일치하였다.

Off-flavors and unfavorable odors in tuna fish oil were successfully removed and identified using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, while retaining variable compounds, polyunsaturated fatty acids such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Samples of oil were extracted in a 100 mL semi-batch stainless steel vessel under conditions which ranged from 8 to 20 MPa and $20\;to\;60^{\circ}C$ with solvent ($CO_{2}$) flows from 10 g/min. GC-MS was used to identify the main volatile components contributing to the off-flavors and odors which included 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2,4-hexadienal, cyclopropane, and octadiene. Analyses of oil extracted at $40^{\circ}C$, 20 MPa showed a 99.8% reduction in dimethyl disulfide. Other significant off-flavors identified were 2-methyl-butene, 3-hydroxy butanal and ethylbenzene.

Membrane process has been employed to separate a specific substance from gas or liquid mixture, and treat wastewater. This is due to the fact that the substance of mixture can be permeated and separated selectively by membrane. Since Initial equipment and operation costs are not expensive, membrane process has been adopted in various fields such as petroleum Industry, chemistry, polymer, electronics, foods, biochemical industry and wastewater treatment. In this study, $CaCO_3$ particles impregnated in silicone rubber network were extracted by using supercritical carbon dioxide and pore distribution of silicone $rubber-CaCO_3$ was investigated with varying amount of extract. Silicone rubber has excellent mechanical properties such as heat-resistance, cold-resistance etc. and $CaCO_3$ has microporous structure. It is possible to make silicone $rubber-CaCO_3$ composite sheets via work-intensive kneading processes. In so doing $CaCO_3$ particles become distributed and impregnated in silicone rubber network. Supercritical carbon dioxide diffuse through composite sample, then sample is swollen. $CaCO_3$ in silicone rubber network Is dissolved in supercritical carbon dioxide, and its sites become pores. Pore distribution, pore shape and surface area are observed by SEM(scanning electron microscope) micrograph and BET surface area analyzer examination respectively. Pore characteristics of membrane suggest the possibilities that the membrane can be used for process of mixture separation and wastewater treatment.
