Features: This book is a sister volume to "Supercritical CO2 Fluid Extraction Technology—Process Development and Application." Together, the two books cover both the process and engineering platforms of supercritical CO2 fluid extraction technology. Having both books at hand can reduce your literature search efforts and facilitate your R&D work. This book provides a comprehensive set of design methods for industrial plant design and technical transformation of supercritical CO2 fluid extraction processes. During the writing process, it strives to be complete, concise, practical, and user-friendly. Based on scientific research practices, the book offers a thorough explanation of the design of complete equipment for supercritical CO2 fluid extraction processes. The book is divided into 12 chapters, introducing the current status and research progress of supercritical CO2 fluid technology, as well as the systematic design of extraction processes, the process and structural design of major equipment, equipment selection, automatic control design, the design of extraction plant pipeline systems, pipeline support design, and pipeline stress analysis, thermal insulation design, corrosion and protection, economic analysis and evaluation, environmental evaluation, and the main content of project feasibility study reports. The primary readers of this book are technical personnel engaged in the research, design, and production of supercritical CO2 fluid extraction technology, as well as science and technology workers in industries such as food, materials, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, fragrance and cosmetics, and environmental protection who are interested in the application of supercritical CO2 fluid extraction technology. It can also serve as a valuable reference book for college and university teachers, graduate students, and senior undergraduate students.
