“…They made a detailed costing of the main components of the SFE plant and applied a large installation factor (2.5), and estimated the cost of larger plants that increased the production capacity four times by using equipment-specific scaling factors. This resulted in an overall exponent of 0.57 that is close to the 0.60 rule-of-thumb exponent [12] but is higher than the value estimated by Núñez & del Valle [13] for SFE plants (0.48). The estimated production cost for an average spice was USD 1.1/kg and decreased to USD 0.50/kg when increasing SFE plant size and productivity by a factor of four [12].…”

“…The mass flow rate of CO 2 through every vessel was very large (30 ton/h) to ensure the short residence time of a small-scale unit (about 2 min). This resulted in a superficial CO 2 velocity of 32.8 mm/s that would fluidize 6-mm particles of a dense material (ρ s = 1400 kg/m 3 ) at the stated extraction conditions (40 °C and 28 MPa) [13]. Under the assumed extraction conditions (details of the mass transfer model were not revealed by Bravi et al [15]), the extraction process was fully controlled by the solubility of the oil in scCO 2 at 40 °C and 28 MPa for about 6-7 min, a time in which the oil content dropped to 76% of the original.…”
