Solutions for Supercritical CO2
EXTRACTIVTM

Supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) is non-flammable, thermally and chemically stable, dependable, inexpensive and easy to obtain. These properties make it ideal for an array of uses.
For example, manufacturers use sCO2 in supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) processes to make decaf coffee, perfumes, essential oils and plant-derived medicines. It can even dry-clean clothes.
Supercritical CO2 is also useful in the processing of foods, drugs, natural products, herbicides and pesticides, fossil fuels, explosives, and propellants. Plus, new uses continue to surface, including as a “working fluid” in gas turbines and other systems.
Whatever your need, Messer is your go-to source for the technology and experience needed for supercritical CO2 applications. For more information, contact us.
