Article Abstract

UV-visible absorption spectra of uranium(VI)-tributylphosphate (U(VI)-TBP) complex dissolved in supercritical CO(2) at 40-60 degrees C and 100-250 kg cm(-2) were recorded. Wavelengths and molar extinction coefficients for the absorption peaks of U(VI)-TBP were determined and confirmed to be in good agreement with those of UO(2)(NO(3))(2)(TBP)(2) complex dissolved in organic solvents such as n-hexane. The absorbance at a given wavelength was proportional to the concentration of U(VI) species in supercritical CO(2), indicating a feasibility of in-situ determination of U(VI) concentration in CO(2) phase. A lower detection limit of U(VI)-TBP complex was estimated to be ca. 1x10(-3)M. The molar extinction coefficient of U(VI)-TBP in supercritical CO(2) decreased slightly with an increase of the density of CO(2) medium, suggesting that the solute-solvent interaction of U(VI)-TBP complex with CO(2) was affected by the density. On the basis of the spectra obtained, phase behavior and solubility of UO(2)(NO(3))(2)(TBP)(2)+H(NO(3))(TBP)+TBP in supercritical CO(2) were elucidated.

Branched poly (butylene succinate-co-butylene terephthalate) (BPBST) was synthesized by in-situ polycondensation to enhance the foamability of poly (butylene succinate-co-butylene terephthalate) (PBST) and was blended with cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) to address foam shrinkage. The introduction of 2 wt% CNC increased the crystallization temperature of BPBST from 66.6 °C to 87.

Supercritical CO, as an environmentally friendly and pollution-free fluid, has been applied in various EOR techniques such as CO flooding. However, the low viscosity of the gas leads to issues such as early breakthrough, viscous fingering, and gravity override in practical applications. Although effective mobility-control methods, such as CO WAG (water alternating gas)-, CO foam-, and gel-based methods, have been developed to mitigate these phenomena, they do not fundamentally solve the problem of the high gas-oil mobility ratio, which leads to reduced gas sweep efficiency.

Instituto de Ciencias de la Vid y del Vino (ICVV) (Universidad de La Rioja, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), Gobierno de La Rioja), 26007 Logroño, Spain.

The objectives of this study were to obtain and characterise polyphenolic extracts from red grape pomace of L. cv Graciano via conventional solvent extraction (SE) and green supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and to evaluate their antibacterial activity against susceptible and multidrug-resistant strains of intestinal origin. The SE and SFE methods were optimised, and ultra-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (UPLC/QqQ-MS/MS) analysis revealed 38 phenolic compounds in the SE sample, with anthocyanins being the predominant polyphenols, and 21 phenolic compounds in the SFE samples, among which hydroxybenzoic acids and flavonols were the predominant compounds.

Green chemistry focuses on reducing the environmental impacts of chemicals through sustainable practices. Traditional methods for extracting bioactive compounds from leaves, such as hydro-distillation and organic solvent extraction, have limitations, including long extraction times, high energy consumption, and potential toxic solvent residues. This study explored the use of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), pressurized liquid extraction (PLE), and gas-expanded liquid (GXL) processes to improve efficiency and selectivity.

A comparative metabolomic study of three varieties of wild Rosa (, , and ) from a Kamchatka expedition (2024) was conducted via extraction with supercritical carbon dioxide modified with ethanol (EtOH), and detection of bioactive compounds was realized via tandem mass spectrometry. Several experimental conditions were investigated in the pressure range 50-350 bar, with the used volume of co-solvent ethanol in the amount of 2% in the liquid phase at a temperature in the range of 31-70 °C. The most effective extraction conditions are the following: pressure 200 Bar and temperature 55 °C for ; pressure 250 Bar and temperature 60 °C for ; pressure 200 Bar and temperature 60 °C for .
