A simple, fast, inexpensive method hal been developed to extract organochlorine pesticide spiked in fish tissues by supercritical carbon dioxide. Following static supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), pesticides are collected by rapidly depressurizing the carbon dioxide effluent through a 0.79 mm i.d. metering valve into a capped screw-top tube. Percent recovers of standard organochlorine pesticides mixture (SOPM) increased with the decrease of the extraction temperature at 103 bar. Maximum average percent recovery of SOPM was 98% at $40^{\circ}C/172\;bar$ Average recoveries of SOPM spiked in Pacific cod, flatfish and common squid were 85,74,and 83% respectively at $40^{\circ}C/172\;bar$ Application of supercritical carbon dioxide ectraction offers and attractive alternative to the use of organic solvents for extraction of organochlorine pesticides from fish tissues.

Supercritical fluid extraction was explored as a method for removing lipids and bad odor from tuna viscera. Selected conditions of extraction pressure, time, temperature and sample size were evaluated for effective removal of lipids and bad odor, Supercritical carbon dioxide was used as a solvent and the extraction was performed at semi-batch flow type. The experimental conditions used in this work was the range of pressure from 1,500 psig to 2,000 psig, the temperature from $25^{\circ}C\;to\;40^{\circ}C$ and dried sample size from 0.2 mm to 1.0 mm. The main fatty acids extracted from tuna viscera were palmitic acid (16: 0) heptadecenoic acid (17: 1) oleic acid (18: 1) and docosahexaenoic acid (22: 6). Protein concentrate was obtained without deformation the optimum condition at $35^{\circ}C$, 1,800 psig and 0.25 mm of the size. In the concentrate after supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, the major amino acids were glutamic acid, leucine and lysine.

Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technique was applied to extract cytotoxic substances from five medicinal plants including Angelica gigas, Angelica acutiloba, Aralia cordata, Spirodela polyrhiza, Bupleurum falcatum, and Acanthopanax sessiliflorus. The cytotoxicities against P388, A549, and HL-60 cell lines were determined for the supercritical carbon dioxide extracts of five plant materials employed and were compared with those of the conventional organic solvent extracts such as n-hexane, $CHCl_{3}$, and MeOH to evaluate the SFE as an alternative method to conventional organic solvent extraction. In most cases, the SFE extracts of plant materials showed enhanced cytotoxicities when compared with those of other organic solvent extracts. In addition, the optimum temperature and pressure of SFE for extraction of the cytotoxic substances were largely affected by both the plant species and the cell lines tested. These results suggested that SFE could be an alternative to the conventional organic solvent method for the selective extraction of cytotoxic compounds from plants.

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.

In this study, the supercritical electroplating was investigated by forming macroemulsion of electroplating solution using surfactant in supercritical $CO_2$. The fluorinated analogous AOT surfactant, sodium salt of bis (2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoro-1-pentanol) sulfosuccinate which has both '$CO_2$ philic' chains and 'hydrophilic' head group was used as a surfactant, and Ni plate and Cu plate were used as the anode and the cathode, respectively. Electroplating was carried out in the conventional method and the supercritical macroemulsion and both results were compared. The supercritical electroplating was carried out in various concentration of surfactant such as 2, 4, 7 wt%, the volume ratio of Ni-plating solution to $CO_2$ was varied in the range of 10-70 vol%, and propane was used as a supercritical fluid instead of $CO_2$. According to the experimental results, the plated surface of Ni on Cu plate performed in supercritical macroemulsion was better than that, in conventional state. In the image of Ni surface plated on Cu plate in supercritical state, there were fewer pin-holes and pits comparing with that in the conventional process. The current and conductivity was increased as the volume ratio of Ni-plating solution to $CO_2$ was increased and the current and the amount of Ni plated on Cu plate were decreased as the concentration of surfactant become higher. In addition, in case of the continuous phase, using $CO_2$ was more effective than using $CO_2$.

The typical removal method of volatile organic compounds is adsorption process. In this study, granular activated carbon and activated carbon fiber were used as adsorbents, and the adsorption behavior for the two types of adsorbent was compared. And they were regenerated by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction at a constant temperature, 318.15 K, and 2000, 2500, 3000 psi respectively. The desorption percentage of initial adsorbates and iodine values were increased with pressure of supercritical carbon dioxide. The regeneration time was 70 and 60 minutes in adsorbents loaded with methyl ethyl ketone(MEK) and benzene, respectively. The desorption percentages were 64.0% for granular activated carbon and 55.3% for activated carbon fiber loaded with MEK, and 59.1% for granular activated carbon and 45.2% for activated carbon fiber loaded with benzene. The exit concentration could be evaluated by Tan and Liou model. Therefore, the granular activated carbon and the activated carbon fiber could be regenerated by supercritical fluid extraction process.

In this study, investigated the synthesis method of p-Phenylenediamine (PPD) by amination of p-Diiodobenzene (PDIB) under supercritical ammonia and CuI catalyst conditions. We examined the effects of various process variables (e.g., reaction temperature, pressure, amount of ammonia inserted, amount of catalyst inserted, and reaction time) on the production yield of PPD by analyzing the Gas Chromatography (GC). The experimental results demonstrated that PPD was not produced under non-catalyst conditions, and PPD production yield increased with increasing temperature, pressure, amount of catalyst inserted, and reaction time. However, for the reaction temperature case, it was found that $200^{\circ}C$ was the optimal temperature, because thermal degradation of PPD occurred above $250^{\circ}C$. In addition, we confirmed the structure of PPD and the bonding characteristics of the amine group via FT-IR and H-NMR analysis.

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.
