SFT 10 High Pressure Carbon Dioxide Pump
The SFT-10 pump can pressurize carbon dioxide up to 10,000 psi (69 MPa) at flow rates from 0.01 to 24.0 ml/min. The characterisitics make the pump useful in high pressure applications, including supercritical fluid extraction, supercritical fluid reaction chemistry and chromatography. It utilizes reliable, dual sapphire syringe pump technology to achieve high pressures rapidly. The Peltier chiller has cooling capabilities that maintain the temperature at the pump heads low enough to ensure the carbon dioxide remains liquid.

Solubility Tool
The SFT Phase Monitor II is an analytical tool for determining the solubility of various compounds and mixtures of compounds in subcritical and supercritical fluids. It provides direct, visual observation of materials under conditions that may be controlled precisely by the researcher. Experiments may be performed in liquid or supercritical carbon dioxide or in other compressed gases. Additionally, the effect of co-solvents on the solubility of compounds of interest in supercritical carbon dioxide can be investigated.

Supercritcal Fluid Extraction
Supercritical Fluid Technologies’ SFT-100 supercritical fluid extraction is designed for research and process development. Process parameters developed in the laboratory are essential in the scale-up to pilot- or production-scale equipment. Precise control of temperature and pressure ensure reproducible extractions. The unit uses dual sapphire syringe pump technology and integrated pre-heaters to ensure tight control over these key parameters. Supercritical fluid extraction has become a popular alternative to traditional extraction using organic solvents.
