Supercritical Fluid (SCF) Systems
Supercritical Fluid (SCF) technology works! With today's innovative,
easy-to-use systems from Applied Separations, your idea will be tomorrow's
green process! No petroleum solvents and no toxic residue.
We have built thousands of SFE systems. Get the benefit of our experience. You have the ideas, we have the SFE systems - from conception to production. From laboratory systems to pilot plants to large scale production facilities.
Applications and process support? We have been involved in hundreds of uses for supercritical fluids. Discuss your ideas with us. We’ll evaluate your samples for free.
A few examples include:
- Extracting herbs, spices and fragrances
- Extraction of pharmaceuticals / nutraceuticals
- Extracting nicotine and caffeine
- Extraction from foods
- Dyeing textiles
- Cleaning medical implants
- Making nanoparticles
- Drying aerogels
- Cleaning wafers
- Developing photoresists
- Extraction from polymers
- Impregnation of biopolymers
We're partners.
Our support doesn't stop with the delivery of a system, we can help you bring your development ideas to full scale production.

It's Easy Being Green!
Carbon dioxide is one of the most commonly used supercritical fluids.
CO2 is:
- Safe
- Inexpensive
- Readily available
- An ideal substitute for many hazardous and toxic solvents
CO2 is not produced in the the SCF process. Existing CO2 is merely used. There is NO addition to any greenhouse effect.
