Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Supercritical Fluid Extraction is a technique in which CO2 is used under extremely high pressure to separate solutions. Separations is basic to all process industries & supercritical fluid extraction is a specific type which is receiving a high level of attention, The book will combine basic fundamentals with industrial applications.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 243-255) and index.
