Supercritical Fluid Chromatography and Extraction

Supercritical Fluid Chromatography and Extraction, Second Edition presents an in-depth look at the modern practices of supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and extraction (SFE). The book emphasizes how both techniques can be implemented effectively in laboratory science for the analysis, isolation, and production of compounds. With significant advancements in instrumentation, SFC has gained renewed interest and enhanced its reputation within the scientific community, offering new possibilities beyond column liquid chromatography. SFE has been predominantly used in the food industry but is now expanding into various other fields with diverse applications.

This book serves as a valuable resource for chemical engineers, chemists, researchers, academics, and students. It provides essential knowledge for those working with supercritical fluids at both preparative and process-scale applications. Additionally, it is ideal for individuals looking to enter the fields of SFC and SFE, offering a comprehensive introduction that consolidates their understanding and enhances their skills. It covers advancements, benefits, and potential applications of both techniques, ensuring readers are well-equipped to leverage these methods in their work.
