Inactivation of Allergenic Proteins by Compressed Carbon Dioxide
… attention. It has been shown that supercritical carbon dioxide, a benign solvent, can kill a wide spectrum of living organisms, from easy-to-kill mammalian cells to hard-to-kill bacterial spores. Recently, carbon dioxide was proven to achieve more than 90% reduction in enzyme activity of trypsin, …

CO₂ compression for capture-enabled power systems
The objective of this thesis is to evaluate a new carbon dioxide compression technology - shock compression - applied specifically to capture-enabled power plants. Global warming has increased public interest in carbon capture and sequestration technologies (CCS), but these technologies add …

Production of nanocrystalline rdx by ress : development and material characterization
… expansion of supercritical solutions (RESS). Compressed carbon dioxide was utilized as the solvent for RDX. Effect of key process parameters including the pre-expansion temperature and pressure, post-expansion pressure, and nozzle dimensions was investigated experimentally and via mathematical …

Reverse Microemulsion System In Compressed Co2: Phase Behavior and Applications For Cleaning Biomaterials
<p>Compressed carbon dioxide (CO2), both in the supercritical and sub-critical regions, may be envisioned as a cleaning solvent for the decontamination of biomaterials and medical devices. However, the use of CO2 in cleaning processes is limited due to its low solvent capacity for polar substances, …
