Mass separation with supercritical gases (gas extraction) . The solvent power of dense gases is considered with ongoing interest for use in technical processes. A great number of gaseous solvents are available, especially if solvent mixtures are included. These solvents can be used in one‐stage or multiple‐stage processes, running batchwise or continuously in countercurrent process. Design the equipment and simulation of the process requires correlation of the underlying phase equilibria. Remarkable progress has been achieved in this field. In some cases data on mass transfer have also been published. Several companies supply turnkey plants or specialized equipment from laboratory to pilot scale. Commercial plants are used extracting natural products and mineral oil residue processing.
