Phase Equilibrium of Β-carotene, Tocopherols and Triacylglycerols

This book illustrates phase equilibrium and rate test units design for subcritical and supercritical extraction. Two phase equilibrium data were experimentally obtained for some vitamins and fats (from oil) during supercritical extraction process. A thermodynamics model based on the Regular Solution equations was developed to predict two phase equilibrium data during this process. Furthermore, a statistical analysis was applied in this work.
