Extração E Fracionamento De Produtos De Ocorrência Natural Com Fluidos Supercriticos

Abstract: O uso de fluidos supercríticos na extração de produtos naturais tem-se mostrado como uma potencial tecnologia, apresentando inúmeras vantagens em relação à extração com solventes comuns. Nos processos envolvendo produtos naturais incluem-se desde aplicações implantadas em nível comercial, como a descafeinização do café, até investigações a nível laboratorial, tais como a extração de princípios ativos de produtos naturais (como, por exemplo, alcalóides) e encapsulamento de agentes quimioterapêuticos pela crista… Show more

“…Caffeine, the most widely consumed alkaloid in the world, is found in coffee beans (approximately 1-2 wt.%), together with others valuable active principles in still higher concentration than caffeine. These active components include coffee oil, which is of special interest to the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, and chlorogenic acids to which several therapeutic properties have been attributed and are typically found in concentrations of 7-13 wt.% and 6-9 wt.%, respectively (Folstar, 1985, Clifford, 1985Mazzafera et al 1998;Lima et al, 2000) Alkaloids, vegetable oils and chlorogenic acids are commonly extracted by conventional methods using organic solvents (chloroform, dichloromethane, Brazilian Journal of Chemical Engineering etc), which are dangerous to handle and harmful to human health and environment (Mohamed, 1997), and under severe process conditions which could result in product thermal degradation (particularly when steam distillation is involved). Despite the high extraction yield of these conventional processes, the selectivity is often low and the purification of the extracted products is very costly (Reverchon et al, 2000).…”

“…This interest is due to the possibility of obtaining solvent-free extracts and the low temperatures employed, which is an attractive way to preserve the quality of thermosensitive products (Dugo et al, 1995;Zancan et al, 2002). Carbon dioxide is considered an appropriate solvent essential oil extraction from natural products, since it is readily available, nontoxic and noninflammable, and has a low reactivity (Mohamed, 1997).…”

“…Fluidos supercríticos (FSC) apresentam meios bastante atrativos para o processamento de produtos de ocorrência natural, decorrente das várias características distintas, tais como, facilidade de recuperação do soluto e reciclagem do solvente, com a simples manipulação de temperatura e/ou pressão; a possibilidade de direcionar a separação pela escolha a priori das condições termodinâmicas de temperatura e/ou pressão e, com isso, a sintonia do poder de solvência do fluído usado na extração para uma determinada extração e/ou separação e o controle da seletividade do processo pela escolha apropriada do solvente e da combinação solvente/cosolvente utilizados (Mohamed, 1997).…”
