Pioneer herbex provides Super critical fluid extraction (SCFE) which is a flexible dynamic technology that enables to achieve the purest and 100% organic extracts of essential oils and food flowers from flowers, herbs and spices, medicinal extracts for health and pharmaceutical industries, hops extract for beer production, removal of pesticides and extraction of natural food coloring, antioxidants and vitamins. SCFE can also be used for the extraction of Natural Perfumes, De-caffeination of coffee and tea, removal of nicotine from tobacco and cholesterol from eggs.
The gas like qualities of the super critical fluids provides ideal conditions for extracting analyses with a high degree of recovery in a very short time. bacteriostatic conditions are reached during the process, with exclusion of atmospheric oxygen and limitation of oxidative reactions.
There has been a lot of concern about the harmful carcinogenic effects of residual solvents. SCFE technology is the answer to this serious health risk. Carbon Dioxide is a solvent generally recognised as safe (Gras Status) for the production of food ingredients by the U.S. Food And Drug Administration (FDA), readily available and cheap at high purity. |
