Features: This book primarily discusses the principles and applications of supercritical fluid technology. The entire book is divided into 14 chapters, with three main parts. Chapters 2 to 7 introduce and discuss thermodynamic phase diagrams, phase equilibrium, and mass transfer, aiming to broaden and deepen the understanding of supercritical fluids and fundamental chemical theories. In addition to small molecular chemical compounds, special attention is given to polymers. Chapters 8 to 10 describe experimental methods, physical calculations, and important supercritical-related issues in process design and development. Chapters 11 to 14 introduce the applications of supercritical fluid technology in chemical reactions, particle preparation, the food industry, and biotechnology, covering the cutting-edge advancements in these fields. This book can be used by engineering technicians in departments such as chemical engineering, materials, food, pharmaceutical preparation, light industry, biotechnology, and environmental protection. It can also serve as a reference for teachers, graduate students, and undergraduate and college students in universities and colleges.
