Lifetime of Si photovoltaics modules are about 25 years and a large amount of waste modules are expected to be discharged in the near future. Therefore, the extraction and collection of valuable metals out of discharged Si modules will be one of the important technologies. In this study, we demonstrated that supercritical $CO_2$ extraction method can be effectively used to remove Cu, one of the abundant elements in the module, as well as its oxide form, $Cu_2O$. Especially, we proved that the addition of hexane as co-solvent is effective for the removal of both materials. The optimal ratio of $CO_2$ and hexane was 4:1 at a fixed temperature and pressure of $250^{\circ}C$ and 250 bar, respectively. In addition, it was proven that the removal of $Cu_2O$ was preceded via reduction of $Cu_2O$ to Cu.

Effects of modifier and soaking on extraction of triterpenoid saponin (glycyrrhizin) from liquorice were examined using supercritical $CO_2(SC-CO_2)$ at 50 MPa, $60^{\circ}C$, and flow rate of 3 mL/min, and glycyrrhizin content was analyzed by HPLC. Additon of undiluted methanol, ethanol or isopropanol as modifier to $SC-CO_2$ had little influence on extraction yield of glycyrrhizin. Soaking process using water increased the extraction yield as the sample to solvent ratio was increased. Addition of 70% methanol, ethanol or isopropanol to $SC-CO_2$ significantly increased the extraction yields, with 70% methanol resulting in the highest yield. When water at 90% (w/w) of sample weight was used for soaking, the extraction yield and rate increased, 70% ethanol-modified $SC-CO_2$ was almost equal to that obtained using 70% methanol.

The volatile components of citron peel extracted by three methods, which were SDE (Simultaneous steam distillation & solvent extraction) extraction, solvent extraction and supercritical carbon dioxide extraction were analyzed with gas chromatography. The operation conditions was at the temperature between $30^{\circ}C$ and $45^{\circ}C$ and perssure between 1000 psi and 2500 psi. The aromatic compound was the principal component extracted, the optimum conditions for limonene extraction were 2000 psi and $40^{\circ}C$.

Conventional decontamination methods utilize water-based systems, which generate high amounts of secondary wastes. Herein, we describe an environmentally benign decontamination method using liquid and supercritical $CO_2$. The use of $CO_2$ as a solvent affords effective waste reduction by its ability to be recycled, thereby leaving be hind only the contaminants upon its evaporation. In this study, a $CO_2$ solution process was assessed using t-salen(t-butylsalen), DC18C6 (dicyclohexano-18Crown6), 8-HQN(8-hydroxyquinoline), NEt4PFOSA(perfluoro-1-octanesulfonic acid tetra-ethyl ammonium salt), and NEt4PFOA(pentadecafluorooctanoic acid ammonium salt) to extract spiked radioactive contaminants(Nb,Zr,Co,Sr) from an inert sample matrix, namely filter paper. With the static extraction method, Sr was extracted with a maximum extraction rate of 97%, and Nb was extracted with a maximum extraction rate of 75%. Additionally, we were also able to extract Co and Zr with maximum extract ion ratesof 73% and 64%, respectively.

Lipid and cholesterol were extracted from beef and pork by the supercritical carbon dioxide $(SC-CO_2)$ for the manufacturing of low-lipid and low-cholesterol sausage. The ranges of extraction temperature and pressure were from 35 to $55^{\circ}C$ and from 103 to 375 bar, respectively. $SC-CO_2$ extraction yield of beef lipid increased as extraction pressure increased and/or extraction temperature decreased, while extraction temperature was more influential on the cholesterol extraction than pressure condition. When lipid and cholesterol of freeze-dried beef with varied moisture contents were extracted, their solubilities increased as the moisture content reduced. The extraction of lipid and cholesterol from pork was shown the same tendency as the beef. The chunk type of beef shape was more suitable for the lipid and cholesterol extraction than the powder type of beef. The color of meat after $SC-CO_2$ extraction was lighter than the raw freeze dried meat because of the extraction of color pigments. After $SC-CO_2$ extraction, beef and pork were rehydrated and mixed with raw beef and pork containing lipid and cholesterol. Their mixing ratio up to 50 : 50 did not affect physical properties of the sausage compared with the control sausage.

Studies were carried out to examine some factors affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of taxol from the bark of Taxus cuspidata using a continuous packed bed extractor. The factors investigated in this study were pressure, temperature, volume of carbon dioxide, and co-solvent. It was found out that the amount of taxol extracted was not significantly affected by the operating pressure in the absence of a co-solvent although it increased by about 20% at 5500 psig. With $24\ell$ of carbon dioxide the saturated amount of taxol was extracted at 318K and 5500psig. Methanol was found to be the most effective co-solvent in terms of amount of taxol extracted among six different co-solvents used. When methanol was used as a co-solvent the effect of operating pressure became significant; approximately 50% increase in the amount of taxol extracted was observed at 3000 psig as compared to at 2500 or 3500psig. The optimum methanol concentration in supercritical fluid was 13% (w/w)at 308K, 3000psig.

Dried raw Ascidians(Halocynthia roretzi) shells harvested from fish farms in southern coast area in Korea were used to extract ${\beta}$-carotene using supercritical carbon dioxide($SCO_2$) and with ethanol as a co-solvent at the range of temperatures and pressures, from 25 to $65^{\circ}C$ and 100 to 350 bar respectively. The size of the dried Ascidians shells was around $850{\mu}m$. The system used this study was a semi-batch flow type high pressure unit. The efficiency of ${\beta}$-carotene extraction using $SCO_2$ with and without co-solvent, ethanol, influenced to pressure and temperature changes. The highest solubility of ${\beta}$-carotene in $SCO_2$ was 1.35 mg/g for ${\beta}$-carotene at $35^{\circ}C$ and 350 bar. With addition of 2(v/v%) ethanol the recovery of ${\beta}$-carotene was 93%. As a result of using n-hexane and methanol for rinse, at $35^{\circ}C$ and 350 bar the amount of ${\beta}$-carotene by methanol rinse was 5 times higher than that of n-hexane rinse.

This study was performed to develop flavor materials from Elsholtzia ciliata Hylander with analyzing functionality and aroma profile and to optimize supercritical fluid extraction method and optimum condition. The qualities of water extracts such as total yield total phenolic compound electron donation ability, estragole and L-carvone, were affected by extraction pressure than time. The response variables had significant with pressure than with time and the established polynomial model was suitable(P>0.05) model by Lack-of-Fit analysis. The optimum extraction conditions which were limited of maximum value for dependent variables under experimental conditions based on central composite design were 238 bar and 42 min.

A new analytical method was developed by HPLC after supercritical fluid extraction and fluorogenic derivatization for the determination of quinclorac (3,7-dichloro-8-quinoline carboxylic acid) in soil. The graminicide quinclorac was extracted from soil by supercritical fluid extraction. Supercritical carbon dioxide at 7000 psi $(80^{\circ}C)$ modified with 30% of methanol extracted quinclorac from soil samples at the level of $0.1ng\;g^{-1}$ with 96% recovery. Extracted quinclorac was determined by HPLC as a fluorescent derivative. Derivatization was made with 4-bromomethyl-7-methoxycoumarin (4-Br-Mmc) using 18-crown-6-ether as a catalyst. The conversion was completed within 30 min and the limit of detection was 0.5 ppb to prove that the procedure could be used in the residue analysis of the pesticides containing carboxylic acid group.
