Green tea was extracted with different solvents such as hot water, varying concentrations of ethanol and carbon dioxide fluid. The carbon dioxide fluid extraction of green tea was a very effective extraction method in terms of antioxidant yield and stability. At pressure of 125kgf, antioxidant extract of green tea produced a yield 1.87 and 2.8 times higher than hot water and $95\%$ ethanol extract, respectively. Antioxidant extract of carbon dioxide fluid was also very stable during 7-day storage at 35?.

Extraction of soybean oil from full tat soybean flour was performed using a supercritical carbon dioxide extraction system. Extraction pressure and temperature of the process were 3,000-7,000 psig and $40-70^{\circ}C$, repectively. For the extraction of lg of soybean oil, 25l of carbon was consumed at 7,000 psig and $60^{\circ}C$, whereas more than 2501 of carbon dioxide was consumed at 3,000 psig and $60^{\circ}C$. The solubility of soybean oil in supercritical carbon dioxide decreased with the increase in temperature below 6,000 psig, and the reverse trend was observed above 6,000 psig. At 6,000 psig the solubilities were shown to be, constant regardless of extraction temperature. Soybean oils , extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide were lighter in color and contained less phosphorus than those extracted with hexane.

The exhaustion of fuel and tremendous greenhouse gas emissions are caused by the sharp increase in the use of fossil fuel. Especially, accounting for over 25% of carbon dioxide emissions, Construction is main environmental problem. So, in this study, we applied network analysis in the selection of spoil-bank to reinforce the GIS to decrease carbon dioxide emissions in construction sites. As a result, we could calculate the expected carbon dioxide emission and transportation cost of the proposed sites by the shortest distance and the least amount of time. We found that if spoil-bank is chosen based on the result, carbon dioxide emissions will be decreased as much as we plant a pine tree. We can also decrease largely by considering and applying complex causes which affect carbon dioxide emissions in construction.

The enzymes $\alpha$-amylase and glucoamylase used in starch hydrolysis were found active in the supercritical carbon dioxide solvent Higher hydrolysis of starch sluny in supercritical $CO_2$ was achieved by operating the reactor for the first two hours with $\alpha$ -amylase and to subsequent addition of glucoamylase for continued hydrolysis.

The extraction of indole alkaloids from Catharanthus roseus using the supercritital carbon dioxide with ethanol was performed in various temperature and pressure conditions. The contents of vindoline in the extracts were determined by HPLC. In this study, the flow rate of cosolvent ehtanol was 20.4$\mu$l/min, about 3 wt.% of flow rate of supercritical carbon dioxide. However the effect of ethanol on the yield of extracted vindoline was not significant.

This study analyzed the amount of carbon dioxide reduction and economic benefits of detailed processes of CO₂ 6,000 tons plant facilities with mineral carbonation technology using carbon dioxide and coal materials emitted from domestic circulating fluidized bed combustion power plants. Coal ash reacted with carbon dioxide through carbon mineralization facilities is produced as a complex carbonate and used as a construction material, accompanied by a greenhouse gas reduction. In addition, it is possible to generate profits from the sales of complex carbonates and carbon credits produced in the process. The actual carbon dioxide reduction per ton of complex carbonate production was calculated as 45.8 kgCO₂eq, and the annual carbon dioxide reduction was calculated as 805.3 tonCO₂, and the benefit-cost ratio (B/C Ratio) is 1.04, the internal rate return (IRR) is 10.65 % and the net present value (NPV) is KRW 24,713,465 won, which is considered economical. Carbon mineralization technology is one of the best solutions to reduce carbon dioxide considering future carbon dioxide reduction and economic potential.

Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) have been suggested as a new technology for wastewater treatment while accomplishing energy and chemical generation. This study describes the performance of BESs based on mixed culture that are capable of reducing carbon dioxide to acetate. The cathode potential was a critical factor that affected the performance of the BESs. The rate of acetate production increased as the electrode potential became more negative, from 0.38 mM $d^{-1}$ (-900 mV vs. Ag/AgCl) to 2.35 mM $d^{-1}$ (-1,100 mV), while the electron recovery efficiency of carbon dioxide reduction to acetate increased from 53.6% to 89.5%. The microbial population was dominated by relatives of Acetobacterium woodii when a methanogenic inhibitor was added to the BESs initially.

The effect of adding carbon dioxide to methane-air flame was investigated experimentally. Measurements included extinction limits, flame temperature and photographic investigation of flame. A diffusion flame was stabilized between counterflowing streams of methane diluted with carbon dioxide and air diluted with carbon dioxide. Extinction limits and temperature for such flames were measured over a wide parametric range and were compared with those for other flames that fuel or oxidant was diluted with nitrogen or argon. The experimental results indicate that extinction phenomena can be explained by thermal effect and as an amount of carbon dioxide in fuel or oxidant increases, greatly as compared with other flames flame-temperature falls and flame-thickness is reduced.

The root of Paeonia lactiflora has been used in Chinese medicine. We conducted to check the comparative qualities of ethanol solvent extraction (PLE) and supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (PLS) of P. lactiflora root. PLE had higher antioxidant and polyphenol contents than PLS. But, PLS were significantly increased peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α. In addition, PLS inhibited the adipocyte differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. When treated with the extract at a concentration of 100 ㎍/mL, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway reporter luciferase activity of HEK 293-TOP cells increased approximately by 3-folds compared to that of the untreated control group. These results indicate that P. lactiflora supercritical carbon dioxide extract may serve as a cosmeceutical for improving skin barrier function and the treatment of obesity.

Systematic methods to calculate thermodynamic properties of carbon dioxide, HFC-134a and HCFC-22 are presented. First, application of a basic method to identify the saturation state with given temperature or pressure is attempted and the feasibility of auxil­iary equations is tested. Next, detailed procedures are suggested to tell a phase when tem­perature/pressure and another property are specified. Finally the Newton-Raphson method is applied to calculate unknown thermodynamic properties fixing the state with the two inde­pendent properties specified. The procedures described here are utilized to develop a computer program, which is used to find the relation between temperature and pressure with maximum isobaric heat capacity for super-critical carbon dioxide.
