Various factors affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of daidzein from soybean were studied. Daidzein was not extracted with pure supercritical carbon dioxide. The ethanol was an efficient modifier for supercritical carbon dioxide to extract daidzein. The extraction efficiency increased as the pressure increased up to 300 bar. At $35^{\circ}C$ and 300 bar, 93% of daidzein was extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide modified with 15% of ethanol.

This study was carried out to examine some factors affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of genistein from soybean. The factors investigated in this study were pressure, temperature, flow rate of carbon dioxide, and concentration of modifier. It was foumd out that genistein is not extracted in the absence of modifier. Ethanol was found to be more effective modifier than methanol. 70% of genistein was extracted at 35$^{\circ}C$, 300bar and ethanol 15% (w/v) as compared with the performances of organic solvent extraction.

The extraction of taxol and baccatin III from the ground needles of Taxus cuspidata were carried out by using supercritical carbon dioxide with and without cosolvents such as ethylacetate and methanol at 300 bar and 313K. Taxol is a promising anticancer agent and baccatin III is a precursor of semisysthesis of taxol. The taxol and baccatin III contents in the extracts were determined by a HPLC. The highest yields of taxol and baccatin III could be obtained by the supercritical extraction with 3wt% methanol and ethylacetate, respectively, as cosolvents. It was also found that the selectivity of taxol and baccatin III were 0.117 and 1.245wt%, respectively, with 0.7wt% ethylacetate, which demonstrated that the selectivity of taxol and baccatin III were increased about 1.8 and 19 times than those of conventional organic solvent extraction.

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.

본 연구에서는 Sorfactant/Cosolvent 혼합용액을 적용한 Soil flushing 기법에 의해 농약(Endosulfan(6,7,8,9,10,10-Hexachlor-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methane-2,3,4benzo (e)dioxathiepin-3-oxide))으로 오염된 토양의 정화효율을 알아보았으며, 회분식 및 연속식 실험을 통하여 최적의 운전조건을 도출하고자 하였다. 세척용액의 적정 사용조건을 알아보기 위한 회분식 실험은 Jar tester를 사용하여 진탕비 (토양 중량 : 세척용액 부피), Surfactant(SDS ＋ POE$_{5}$, POE$_{9}$ ＋ POE$_{14}$, POE$_{5}$ ＋ POE$_{14}$, POE$_{14}$)와 보조용매(water, ethanol, methanol, ethanol＋methanol)의 혼합비 및 농도 조건을 변화시켜가며 토양세척을 수행하였다. 세척용액은 보조용매에 Surfactant의 농도를 0.5%, 1%로 용해하여 적용하였다. 연속식 실험은 회분식 실험에서 얻어진 최적 세척용액 사용조건 즉, 계면활성제 SDS + POE$_{5}$(1:1, 용액농도 1%), 보조용매 ethanol을 일정 비율로 혼합한 세척용액을 오염된 토양이 충진된 유리칼럼에 여러 유량조건에서 1 - 20 pore volume까지 통과시켜 각 통과된 pore volume에서의 토양세척 효율을 알아보았다. 본 실험조건에서 얻어진 세척용액의 최적 통과 속도는 0.31 ㎤$cm^{-2}$$min^{-1}$ 이었으며, 세척온도의 증가에 따른 세척효율의 향상은 2$0^{\circ}C$이상에서 크게 둔화되었다. 또한 보조용매의 사용량을 줄이기 위해 에탄올을 물로 1:3까지 희석한 결과 세척효율에 큰 영향이 없음을 알 수 있었다.

Factors affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of camptothecin(CPT) and 10-hydroxycamptothecin(HCPT) from the dried powder of Cmptotheca acuminata were studied. Only a few amount of CPT and HCPT was extracted with pure supercritical carbon dioxide. Methanol and ethanol were efficient modifiers to extract CPT and HCPT. At $40^{\circ}C$, 250 bar, 1 mL/min flow rate, 41% of CPT and 35% of HCPT were extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide modified with 16% of methanol. The diffusion effect of HCPT on extraction efficiency was studied in this solid-fluid system. Round matrix hot-ball model assumption revealed that the value of D/$r^2$ was 0.0072 $min^{-1}$ which was higher than that of solvent extraction with methanol.

The study of pancreatin extraction was investigated by supercritical fluid process. Using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction with entrainer the purification of pancreatin was possible to remove lipids from Hog pancreas. To observe the optimum conditions different experimental variables were changed as pressure, temperature, flow rate of solvent and 0.25 mm of sample size were evaluated for effective removal of lipids. Ethanol and n-hexane were used as an entrainer with 5 mL/min. Increasing pressure at constant temperature the efficiency of the lipid removal in Hog pancreas was improved and the protein was concentrated without denaturalization, compared that of the control Hog pancreas. The most efficient conditions of lipid elimination were 17 MPa of pressure and 35$^{\circ}C$ of temperature and 0.25 mm of sample size.

The extraction of glycyrrhizic acid from licorice using supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO$_2$) was investigated with respect to the effects of extraction parameters such as the kind and amount of modifier, temperature, pressure, and extraction time. The conventional organic solvent extraction was also conducted for a quantitative comparison. The content of glycyrrhizic acid in crude extracts was analyzed by HPLC and the yield of glycyrrhizic acid was computed as a weight percent recovery. The optimal pressure and temperature for SCCO$_2$ extraction were found to be 40 MPa and 80$^{\circ}C$, respectively, when SCCO$_2$ was modified with 70% aqueous ethanol. Under the same pressure and temperature, the highest recovery was attained to be 104.57% in the first 60 min when the concentration of 60%, aqueous ethanol in SCCO$_2$ was 15%.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of a cosolvent-modified supercritical $CO_2\;(scCO_2)$ extraction technique for the production of licorice extracts with high levels of glabridin. The effects of various parameters such as the type and amount of modifiers, extraction temperature ($40{\sim}80^{\circ}C$) and pressure ($10{\sim}50.0\;MPa$) on the extraction efficiency were examined at a fixed flow rate of 1 mL/min. The organic solvent extraction with pure methanol was also conducted for a quantitative comparison with the $scCO_2$ extraction. The recovery of glabridin from licorice was found to be extremely small for pure $scCO_2$. However, the addition of modifiers such as ethanol and acetone to $scCO_2$ resulted in a significant improvement in the recovery of glabridin. The recovery of glabridin was observed to increase with pressure at a constant temperature. Furthermore, the purity of the glabridin obtained from the $scCO_2$ extraction was higher compared with the organic solvent extraction.

By using supercritical carbon dioxide fluid, an attempt was made to extract surface-active substances from defatted rice bran. Extraction was carried out according to D-optimal design and results were analyzed by response surface methodology to establish optimum condition. It was found that pressure, temperature and co-solvent (ethanol) influenced in a different extent on the extraction efficiency (i.e., yield and interfacial tension) of surface-active substances. Among them, co-solvent was found to be a major influencing factor, where maximum yield (2.62%) was observed at the highest content (250 g). In addition, it also affected most on the interfacial tension at the oil-water interface but in this case the lowest interfacial tension value (9.51 mN/m) was found when added lowest (50 g). In conclusion, it was estimated that the optimum extraction condition was to be pressure 350bar, temperature $62^{\circ}C$ and co-solvent content 50 g in this study, where extraction yield was 0.69% and interfacial tension to be 10.1 mN/m.
