Naturally: Plant Proteins (only available in German) Food industry trend, towards environmentally-friendly, sustainable, as well as certified and healthy products is ongoing. Efficient defatting of miscellaneous natural substances, via supercritical CO₂-extraction, enables utilization of enriched plant proteins in meat substitute products. Examples include legumes (like soy beans or lupine), nuts/seeds (like cashew, pumpkin), as well … Naturally: Plant Proteins (only available in German)

Halal-Certification and CO2-extraktion (only available in German) Worldwide, an increased demand for halal-certified food is reported. Supercritical CO₂-extraction poses an ideal manufacturing process for customers, who focus on halal-certified food products. Within our production process, none of the substances, classified as prohibited, like Ethanol, are applied.Authors: L. Waldschütz, M. Tippelt, Dr. C. Kersch, J. SchulmeyrPublished: … Halal-Certification and CO₂-extraktion (only available in German)

From Lab Scale to Pilot and Production Scale – Using scCO2 at 1,000 bar, with special focus on Algae “Haematococcus pluvialis” Exclusively by application of CO₂ high-pressure extraction (> 800 bar) it is possible to extract certain carotinoids, like the antioxidant Astaxanthin, out of Haematococcus pluvialis. Extremely complex implementation of technical process has primarily been … From Lab Scale to Pilot and Production Scale – Using scCO₂ at 1,000 bar, with special focus on Algae “Haematococcus pluvialis”

Industrial Hemp – the Big Boom?! (only available in German) Advantages of supercritical CO₂-extraction, for generation of leaf extract out of industrial hemp, include for example gentle treatment of raw material, anaerobic manufacturing process, as well as option to produce different extract colours and compounds, through modifiable parameters, upon customers’ demand. Industrial hemp products require … Industrial Hemp – the Big Boom?! (only available in German)

Extraction of microalgae Extraction of microalgae derived lipids with supercritical carbondioxide in an industrial relevant pilot plant Jan Lorenzen, Nadine Igl, Marlene Tippelt, Andrea Stege, Farah Qoura, Ulrich Sohling, Thomas Brück Microalgae are capable of producing up to 70% w/w triglycerides with respect to their dry cell weight. Since microalgae utilize the greenhouse gas CO2, they can be cultivated … Extraction of microalgae
