Phase Diagram for CO2 Properties
• Hybrid of liquid and gas properties
• High diffusivity and low viscosity, like a gas
• High solute diffusion coefficients (DM) in mobile phase
• Density* and solvating power, like a liquid
*varies with T and P – attention!
4
Phase Diagram for CO2 Practical Use in SFE and SFC
• CO2 has most reasonable critical point for instrumentation
• Solvating power like hexane
• Add polar modifier (MeOH, ACN) to increase solvating power (~ 2 – 40% v/v)
• Operate more in subcritical region with modifiers• High diffusivity and low viscosity
maintained

▪Analytical technique since 1980s
▪Supercritical CO2 + modifiers
▪Stepwise process:1. Extraction of soluble substances from matrix by SF
2. Separation/recovery of the extracted compounds
▪On-line and Off-line
▪Dynamic and static modes
▪Green extraction technique▪Reduced solvents, reagents, energy usage, waste, time, and cost
▪CO2 is a gas at room T; depressurize and vent after use
COMMON APPLICATIONS• Bioactive natural products• Pesticide residues in food and soil• Lipids
INSTRUMENT COMPONENTS• CO2 supply• Cooling heat exchanger• Flow meter• CO2 pump• Co-solvent pump• Extraction cell (heated)• Restrictor• Sample collector (heated)

Key Parameters to be Optimized:
Raw Material – particle size & porosity (mass transfer), water content
P and T – density of solvent (solvating strength)◦ Increase P, increased density, better solvating power◦ Increase T, decreases density, but increases volatility of solutes
Use of modifiers – usually < 10%; increased solubility
Extraction time – maximize extraction (higher); throughput (lower)◦ Flow rate and extraction time co-dependent variables – kinetics of extraction process
Analyte considerations: volatility, polarity, and thermal stability
7
Binary mobile phase (SC CO2 + modifier) gives benefit of GC and LC
•Low viscosity and high diffusion constants• High speed (increased linear velocity)• High efficiency (longer columns)• Less backpressure issues than HPLC
•Addition of organic modifier allows analysis of polar compounds
•Lower solvent consumption compared to HPLC• Decreased waste generation and disposal costs
•A green separation technique, especially at larger scales

•Good for samples with:• Trace level analytes
• Light or air sensitive analytes
• Restricted sample quantity
•Increased throughput
•On-line sorbent trap
•Nexera UC – trap on analytical column• Extraction solvent strength vs. chromatographic

SFE COUPLED ON-LINE WITH:
• Gas chromatography – stationary
phase and film thickness
• Liquid chromatography/LC-MS –
solid phase trapping to remove gas
• Supercritical fluid chromatography –
packed or capillary trap

Proposed Intuitive Database – User Input
User may select to either generate a single run or batch for optimization.
Select ‘single run’ → software directs user to a set of ‘starting parameters’.
Select ‘batch’ → software directs user to ‘key variables’.
Single Run vs. Batch
While the Database will feed into User Input to generate the starting parameters and key variables for analytes and matrices that we have optimized under the Central Composite Design, the unique User Input added will be utilized to update the Database.

Database could include analyte properties, suggestions for MRMs, and matrix compositions. Additionally, specific analyte/matrix optimized extraction parameters will be central to the database. Parameters will be developed through Central Composite Design experiments and response surface method data analysis with the assistance of UTA Department of IMSE.
