Supercritical CO2 Sorption Within Polymers Used in Medical Devices and Their Packaging
In situ CO2 sorption monitoring ensured the establishment of thermodynamic equilibrium in polymers used for medical devices and their packaging. All the studied polymers, except PETG, exhibited similar kinetic profiles, allowing the quantification of CO2 sorption and the resulting polymer swelling under thermodynamic equilibrium conditions. For PETG, a

Studies on the use of supercritical ammonia for ceramic nitride synthesis and fabrication [PDF]
The extractability of ammonia halides (including ammonium thiocyanate) formed as byproducts from the synthesis of Si(NH)2 via ammonolysis of the corresponding silicon tetrahalides using supercritical NH3 as the extraction medium was investigated.

Headspace analysis of natural yoghurt using headspace solid phase microextraction : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Food Technology at Massey University (Turitea Campus), Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) method was originally developed to extract volatile and semivolatile compounds from wastewater samples but has since been applied to flavour compounds in foods and beverages.

Due to several challenges, electrolyte recovery from spent battery waste has been less explored compared to electrode materials. This study presents various strategies for recovering electrolytes from spent battery waste. Electrolyte recovery can prevent hazardous chemicals from being released into the environment.

Regeneration of Modified Bentonite Loaded with Phenol Using Supercritical Fluids
The desorption of phenol from organically modified bentonite (ODTMA–bentonite) using supercritical fluids was studied. Parameters such as pressure, temperature, supercritical fluid flow rate and co-solvent (entrainer) concentration were investigated. The

Strategic techniques for upgrading bio‐oil from fast pyrolysis: a critical review
Abstract Pyrolysis has been the subject of extensive scientific research due to its potential application to various waste streams and byproducts from different production systems. One of its main products is the liquid fraction known as bio‐oil – a complex material composed of a wide variety of organic molecules and a significant water content.
