Applied Separations has constructed a unique counter current extraction column that uses supercritical carbon dioxide to fractionate components contained in a liquid. Counter current extraction using supercritical carbon dioxide is an alternative to conventional distillation and solvent extraction processes and offers the use of a “green solvent” with enhanced selectivity and mild operating conditions. Many applications of this technology are applicable to edible oils, including the removal of free fatty acids, separation of glycerides, and the removal of free fatty acid ethyl esters.
